  1. Europeans have been stealing and plundering China for centuries as well and yet here they are today where they've still built themselves up to be a huge economic power. Maybe its because the Chinese learned from the Europeans and instead of forever complaining about them, they themselves put that new found knowledge to good use. All the other people who complain about northerner's taking from them are also the same ones who never learn from those who are more advanced than them and they never maintain all the systems and infrastructure that was built in their countries. Instead they plunder and destroy what was handed to them which is why they're still as poor now as they were decades ago. Just look at South Africa as a prime example. Always teetering on the edge of chaos and destruction and if the entire white population packed up and left, South Africa would immediately turn into the next big giant craphole like every other predominately black nation.

  2. No reason that poor countries below the equator can't take the China route. Namely provide cheap labor to build western products and to learn from them while doing so and then eventually opening up their own factories to build some basic products of their own and then grow from there.
