Rich people who lived simply, “not underdeveloped, over exploited.”

The bananas were a nice touch. It’s sickening how politicians are using terms like “banana republic” divorcing them from actual meaning. I almost said, “and kangaroo court,” but caught myself, before typing “court,” since for a lot of North Americans struggling for any justice get that, for instance the college protesters.

They call countries banana republics, from what could be described as oil and banking republics with just a small modification or two, without a hint of irony.
