It's also how the US grew in the 18th century, by stealing IP from the global technological leader, Britain (who stole a great deal from India).

I know Britain exploited the hell out of India as a colony, but what IP did they steal?
Or did you just mean stolen resources?

I don’t have a reference, but high quality steel making would be one.

You don't have a reference, because high quality steel was invented in the U.S.

India had 25% of world's before Britishers arrived and sucked all the wealth to bring it down to 4% when they left. That's some serious exploitation.

India had advanced steel making, ship making and textile technologies which were taken by the British.

Huh, I am Indian and have never heard it said like this. Do you have any sources to back this up, apart from the rockets and textile industries?

Considering we're all just going to end up "stealing" each others' technology in the end anyway, it strikes me that it might be much easier if we all just collaborated in the first place.
