I might be a few beers in, but I don't quite understand your thesis.

Politics in developing countries is a business, not ideological.

Ain't no good guys - only bad guys.

Everyone's in on making enough out of the grift to emigrate to the US or the UK (just like Sheikh Hasina and her opponent Khalida Zia's children)

What a joke! Imperialism flourished due to corporates being allowed to own their own private armies. The US is the best example of a country that exists for, and is run by corporates - and that happened because the older European powers clamped down on corporates, and they fled to the US.

This comment is a lot of nonsense, but this takes the cake. America has always had more powerful private interests than Europe.
