Not really, but of that list only China hasn't directly colonized the country I live or send storm troopers into the forest to murder people in the past decade. I would like the taxes we pay here to go towards developing ourselves, we can pay to educate networking engineers and subsidize the work ourselves and hook into the internet as a peer instead of as a subscriber. Third world countries aren't poor because we have no money, we're poor because we're trapped in bad loan agreements, have lopsided international investment and bad interior planning which prefers plantation cash crops over food security.
Yeah, development is a "sticky wicket". I didn't mean to speak on your behalf when you're there to speak for yourself, so sorry about that.
