I hesitate calling the Saudi economy successful but it is definitely prosperous. Now that Iraqis have passports I suspect at least some will go to work in SA.

Unemployment in Saudi Arabia among Saudis is something like 25%.

But doesn't the House of Saud pay for certain things or give them a guaranteed income? If things were so bad, they wouldn't have to import foreign laborers. The Saudis would be willing to the do the grunt work themselves.
