My cousin just told me capitalism was so great, (while I have a more sinister theory about capitalism and why Karl Marx was right in some areas)

Third world countries entered the race late. And they did so on hugely unequal grounds. Many were previously colonies of western powers, stripped and exploited of all their natural resources.

When you come to the party late, you get the crumbs. Of course you look different from those in suits and ties and you are in tatters. What more, you also sound different trying to speak in their tongue. If they don't laugh at you, you'd better be thankful already.

"Did I hear you correctly- you said you want a piece of the pie too? God, you're greedy aren't you? And you give out too much gas. Please go clean the air around yourself before you come to OUR party."

The third world. That's how it is.
