They have things they can fall back on…GDP per capita…according to World Bank data Kuwait had a GDP per capita of approximately $29,000 in 2019 while Iraq was $5,000…Kuwait does share the wealth with the citizens, Iraq was not doing that. This substantial difference in GDP per capita clearly indicates Kuwait is wealthier on a person basis than Iraq. Even thought that’s true it doesn’t mean Iraq can’t turn around get their crap together because if they did they would easily smash Kuwait…Once the Iraqi people are becoming prosperous as well you’re going see Iraq pass up Kuwait as far as being a rich nation…Kuwait’s got their act together. We need Iraq to do the same thing.
