Before you get too carried away, do not forget that those "cheap"

And if they didn't have the income coming from working for the "oppressive 
Western industrail base" just what do you think they'd be doing? Probabaly 
starving to death is my guess. You have to start somewhere if you're going to join 
the rest of the world and begin the climb to developed status. Maybe they 
should get rid of their socialist dictators first instead of blaming America for 
all their troubles. We had to throw off the European yoke at the beginning of 
our own development.
