Thats actually pretty badass IMO ... wouldn't mind seeing that. I was in Dubai 2 Years ago and that place has a TON of money. HOT as hell though ... I would literally sweat in the shower with the water on cold[&o]

They don't have liberals preventing them from profiting off of their natural resources.

Please see this chart:

You can stop using the word Liberal out of context, since it is clearly the "conservatives" who prefer to spend more money.

By the way - clean air, water, environment, and a thriving ecosystem, are natural resources. I'd call oil more of an un-natural resource due to the complex refinement needed to make it valuable.

And guess what, Dubai gets a bunch ofits money from you.

WND also has reported sovereign wealth funds in six Persian Gulf countries, including Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar, have now amassed $1.7 trillion, positioning them for attempts to control major banks and securities firms in the United States.
In September 2007, Dubai acquired 19.9 percent of Nasdaq, the second largest stock exchange in the United States.
