I'm not saying I would do what they're doing, but I can see why they're doing it.

It's just another way America use their extreme capitalism to control the world. Suppress developing countries, extort those with no money, all the while building up power and claiming divine right to kill anything that doesn't conform or appears to be a threat. That is not democracy. Democracy has an equal degree of compassion associated with it.

Why let people grow rich from the misfortune of others? Not just one or two people either, whole countries.
