Why do some developed countries (U.S.) like to keep developing countries in serious debt?

Question

"Another cause for large scale debt has been the corruption and embezzlement of money by the elite in developing countries (who were often placed in power by the powerful countries themselves). These moneys are often placed in foreign banks (and used to loan back to the developing countries). Many loans also come with conditions, that include preferential exports etc. In effect then, more money comes out of the developing countries than is given in. This depresses wages even further due to the spiraling circle downwards to ensure that enough exports are produced."

Even global organizations like the World Bank, IMF, WTO, G8, and others are keeping poor countries in debt on purpose. That's why there have been large mass protests around the world

But of course the American media never reports on this

Answer 1

Maybe because the developed countries are in serious debt as well.
