  1. Without oil and foreign labor, the Gulf would be little better off than Afghanistan.

  2. Because apparently dying or being enslaved in a prosperous foreign country beats living and being free in your floundering home country.

  3. Just like how the Olympics were held in China twice.

  4. Litigation doesn't exist in the Gulf. Suing is an American thing.
    2
  5. Because your government and families need that remittance money.

  6. In the case of Qatar, built by people who are not legally allowed to live in them as they're just there on a temporary work-visa.
    1
  7. Because they're too lazy and spoiled to build it themselves.

  8. Don't hold your breath.

  9. <And that was the reason communism came out of Europe. > With the people being little better off as their heroes became the new oligarchs.

  10. Their religion advocates enslaving and killing infidels.

  11.  @saveUyghurs  That was the price they voluntarily chose to pay just to GTFO their home countries.

  12. Why don't you produce your own oil?
    1
  13. All because we are too lazy and cheap to produce the things we consume domestically.

  14. You mean the Americas. Europe never had foreign slave labor on its shores to build it.
    1
  15. No. And Muslims are not exactly innocent with the way they treat non-Muslims in their home countries.
    1
  16. No.
    1
  17. Because of tyranny, oil and US military aid.

  18. How about a better idea? Make Qatar hire and put its own citizens to work?
    1
  19. Yes they are as they were the ones who allowed those corporations to set up shop. <Qatar reformed and will punish all corporation whose conducts in these jobs.> Only to save face.
    1
  20. LOL. Qatar isn't trying anything except to save face.
    1
  21. Poverty is a consequence and corruption is a humanity problem. A lot of those helpless people are just a mere reflection of the leadership.
    1
  22. Like they did with Russia? LOL
    1
  23. Exactly.

  24. <n Africa we don't have money but our people would never do that to another human beings.> Nigeria just checked in to say HI!

  25. <f you think deep, at least the Arab countries give millions of poor unskilled and illiterate foreign labour a opportunity to supporting their love one by working there> So does the United States of America. Just ask the Mexicans. <unlike the western countries where only the rich or professional allowed to enter in their countries for job or business,> Like every other country worth something.

  26. But the workers voluntarily chose to go to Qatar.
    1
  27.  @MsKhhan  But who told those workers to go to Qatar in the first place?
    1
  28. But with the poorest human development on Earth.
    1
  29. The locals are too lazy and spoiled to work.
    1
  30. <May be international human rights groups or something need to look into this and take action.> How? They have no jurisdiction in the Gulf.
    1
  31. Due to bad policies by their government.
    1
  32. As if Qatar was ever in any position to. Interestingly, it's dependent on the very same Western countries for military protection.

  33.  @michihofer587  Poverty is a symptom. Not the cause.
    1
  34. LOL. Since when did governments of Muslim nations have compassion for foreign infidels? <Sadly but if the government of these muslim nations see the actual hardship of those working migrants maybe their compassion can prevail hopefully.>

  35. The Gulf is not all that capitalist.
    1
  36. Like the Ethiopian immigrants?
    1
  37. France's winters are nowhere nearly as brutal as Eastern Europe's.
    1
  38. Not nearly as much as they're trying to save face and maintain a good image.
    1
  39. It is by GDP per capita. But foreign migrants are not counted.
