Lol. You're conflating the MIC and multi-national corporate profits with the growth of the middle class domestically? You'll need some sauce for your crazy ass theory. Let me know how the United Fruit Company contributed to the growth of the middle class. Did the UFC share their profits with the middle class?
TIL trickle down economics is when you do massive military spending and use it to open up new markets in the third world to private interests and then meddle in those countries' politics constantly to keep them underdeveloped neocolonies
There’s plenty of literature about the growth of the middle class in America and elsewhere and none of it talks about the United Fruit company.
what literature please
