Take away the oil and the whole ME (every Arab State in that region put together) has the GDP of Denmark.Uhm, try Botswana, or someplace else, not Denmark:
GDP Saudi Arabia: $281.2 billion (2005 est.)Per capita, Denmark is double Saudi Arabia. Oh, and S.A. is running 10% unemployment (males -- add womins and it's, what, 60%?)
GDP Denmark $254.1 billion (2005 est.)
Good point - and without the oil?
