    Check out the studies on "unequal exchange". The most recent publication is https://www.iskrabooks.org/books/p/ue-past-present-future by Torkil Lauesen.

    It is an analysis that accounts for the cost of European social democracy being borne by the over exploited world

    The article provides numbers, examples, and cites its sources. It was written in 2021 as well, so this is relatively modern economic data. Please read the article, if I wanted you to understand how imperialism functions I would have recommended reading Lenin himself, rather than an article using Lenin's understanding of imperialism as a base and elaborating on it with hard numbers.
