Best Answer

The leaders of the LEDC countries are not sensible enough to realize that they need raw material processing economies, not the low economy of exporting them to other countries who engage their young ones in lucrative processing jobs to the detriment of their own countries young ones. They do not know that they need to create jobs at home by processing their raw materials, add value to them, export them at higher value and improve the standard of living of their people. The leaders of the LEDCs just do not know. They are just plain stupid. That is the reason. Plain Stupid.

ledcs ask medcs for money if they need it but over time, medcs charge more and more interest and so the ledcs can't pay it back. medcs also bargain for their resources so when the ledcs are left in debt, with no control over their resources, they end up in poverty.

What are LEDCs?

LEDC stands for less economically developed country and in general, LEDCs are non-industrial nations. They tend not to manufacture goods and the residents are usually poor. Another term for LEDCs is Third World nations and there are MEDC's too, that stands for more economically developed countries and those countries are rich. A few of them are England, Australia and The United States of America. A few of the LEDC countries are Panama, Sierra Leone and Ghana and there several more. Residents of LEDC's countries earn the equivalent of less than $1200 US a year (which is less than $4 US a day).(see a list at the related link)
