How can a country get any where if the people do not want to work.. Do you know that Saudis refuse to do all kinds of work.. Beneath them.. So they have about 6 million foreign workers of all kind for which they pay top dollars.. And native Saudi is heavily subsidized.. From education to housing to cost of marriage..And they have more prince, princess and hangers on then any where else.. They must be pretty productive.. :o) 15 years ago, at height of their boom, per capita between US and SA was about the same.. Now it is 1/4 of US so a lot of unhappy but educated people.. Just a matter of time before some thing happens and it is not going to be pretty..
