Against

Countries such as Jamaica are against the International Monetary Fund because they are in 7 billion dollar debt to the IMF and it is still increasing due to the increasing interest. The movie, Life + Debt, a documentary, shows a more in depth explanation as to why they have a problem with the organization. One of the things that the movie stated was that even if they worked diligently for a decade, they wouldn't be able to pay off the debt because the prices are increasing. The imported goods from other countries are cheaper than the ones produced within the country and the local citizens preferring to buy the cheaper goods rather than home grown goods. That leads to its own country not making money. Therefore, they are forever in debt to the International Monetary Fund. It implies that the developing and undeveloped countries will continue to get poorer even with the expense of rich nations because it is all business; that in the wealthy's terms called altruism.
