Making money and having fun are the only peaceful cooperative human
endeavors. It is politicians and rich people keeping people poor in poor
countries that prevents peace and prosperity. The rich and powerful in
poor countries are definitely doing what they can to keep poor people
poor. But this is not the Fault of America.
They are not doing it as capitalism, though. It is definitely what Marx
described as capitalism, but what Marx was talking about was landed
aristocracy and hereditary power, which was what he described in
England. Communists and socialist countries merely transferred the
names. The state enterprises became the new landed aristocrats, and as
is their wont, the new lords tried their best to make sure their children
and their siblings and siblings children and their 3rd generation the
inheritors of their power and riches. With China and Cuba being but the
best examples.
In every so-called classless society there are clear classes observable.
In South America the landed aristocrats are still old families, the state
enterprises and the church, that they lack the titles duke, lord and king
doesn't change the nature of their being and existence. In Africa and Asia
too, it's the same as 1840's England, which is what Marx studied.
That post feudal, pre-modern society was securely anchored in the
zero sum game of wealth which the Catholic church has been
promulgating since it's beginning and which has been the basis for most
political thought since the dawn of time.
Northern Europe's Protestantism wiped out the zero sum game
ideology, which is why non-Catholic Northern Europe is richer than
Catholic Southern Europe. Zero sum, where it is believed that there is a
finite amount of wealth in the world, or dukedom, and thus if the one
with the least gets a little more then the one with the most believes that
he now has a little less, and no one is altruistic enough to allow that.
