I only put it as a counterexample to western democracies where you pay many taxes and few services, taking into account that both in Dubai and Abi Dhabi the natives receive subsidies from oil dividends, something unthinkable in a western democracy.

With respect to me it is a climate that I do not tolerate, it is the worst thing I see that limits you in many aspects of life. 

 Oh for sure…you are spot on with your example. We are in Australia, one of the largest natural gas providers and our economy is completely ruined…we should be thriving. It makes us so angry that we talk about moving back to the UAE…I can’t do that climate with my kids 

 I just read you can now buy property with btc & crypto in the UAE 😒 

 Being able to buy beans in Brazil without hacky gift cards would be the real game changer. 

 You can,  here in Jericoacoara 

 Quero ir!
