do you know why?
Because we are fucking assholes; corruption, nepotism and populism would still run rampant and we (mexicans in general) would still enable them
I understand you’re probably Mexican, but you’re just being racist towards Mexican people. There’s nothing inherent about Mexican people that makes them corruptible, tolerant to corruption, or assholes, or nepotists. The reality is Mexico is part of the global south, and so the global north basically forces it to adopt free trade agreements which allow companies from the global north to open factories and businesses there with misery wages and bad working conditions, and to export these goods and services to the global north at much reduced prices. This perpetuates a cycle in which the labor of the global north is consistently priced much higher than that of the global south, and there’s a wealth extraction called “unequal exchange”.
In the meanwhile, every effort is made so that there’s no labor organization in the exploited country, and that elected leaders don’t apply protectionism or even nationalizations.
So yes, it’s fair to blame the US and the rest of the global north for the lack of development of most regions in Asia, Latin America, and Africa.
