Can you give a good example in history of businesses, or any one business ruining a country? Can you given an example of unfettered free-market policies destroying a country?

You could argue the United Fruit company fucked over a lot of central american countries.

Like Jamaica.  They're in the position they are because of the UFC and US chicken countries.


Americans like the breast.  So sell the breasts to the Americans and dump off all the undesireable parts on central america for cheap.

Destroyed all their industry.

 

The CIA helped the overthrow of the government of Guatamala on behalf of them too.
