Not that I agree with these military juntas as they are no doubt brutal, but not sad for the corporations at all. They have been exploiting those country’s resources with giving little in return for a long time.
You should think a little about your automatic reation on the word "junta" with "they are no doubt brutal" and where it comes from. Those particular juntas enjoy the widespread support and acceptation in society and are much less brutal to it than your average western (not to mention comprador) "democracy".
That’s fair. I didn’t know enough about the regime to make that leap.
