Chapter 454

Having carried out missions around the globe since he was a teenager, Xiao Tian was naturally well-acquainted with the operating mechanisms of those capitalist entities. Western capital groups, in particular, roamed the world plundering wealth under the banner of freedom! Relying on the head start of their Industrial Revolution and the primitive accumulation of capital, they frantically harvested resources from the world's underdeveloped regions. On the surface, they appeared to be bringing benefits to the locals, yet the vast majority of these impoverished areas had not become better places because of their arrival. While it seemed that industrial goods were flooding into those backward regions, they were simultaneously stripping away the locals' natural resources. While tossing them a few scraps, they also inflicted massive environmental pollution upon those very lands! Therefore, capital was simply capital; they would never turn into philanthropists! In today's world, had Long Country not stood single-handedly against the entire West, the rest of the globe would likely have been fleeced even more ruthlessly by Western capital!
