What resources are being sucked at what price per unit resource, and what amount of that price is kept in-country for investment and for paying the laborers?

Is your argument that "the West" isn't paying enough? Or that the money being paid isn't making its ways into the right pockets, or, ... what?

EDIT: To be clear ... I simply don't understand your summary of the complex phenomenon of "being sucked by the West".
