Any person who thinks Dubai is the result of free market forces is completely wrong. In Dubai, oil has been the foundation of growth because despite having just a fraction of what neighbouring Abu Dhabi has, the vast majority of the money flowing into Dubai comes from oil sources. Dubai is a state ruled to a large degree by one person. The state = Sheikh = State Planning = Dubai Holding = Tatweer = Emaar = Emirates = Everyting in Dubai.

You do not know how it works Dubai. Dubai is not a Banana Republic

1$ a day? I don't think so... I know a man, who is Pakistanish and works there as designer... And he earns really good money there... I don't know exactly but 200$ a day minimum...

That's monstrous. They earn $1 a day while their bosses earn millions. They live & work in horrible conditions and often don't get paid. They're trying to escape poverty, and Dubai's bloodsucking capitalists take advantage of their misery to exploit them. The parasitic elite of Dubai don't create wealth: the immigrant workforce does. The Pakistanis should rise up and take back what's theirs.

Pakistani labour is not forced to work in Dubai. They go there voluntarily -for $1 a day! So you have to be fair and not try to blame other people, for your misfortune!

that must explain why Darth Cheney moved all his assets over there.

In 10 years time Dubai will be a white elephant. No rational human being can deny that this sort of development is not sustainable. |
