I won't visit Dubai. No doubt about that. They may be building the tallest skyscraper, but I don't give a damn! They're doing it on slave labor wages! What is it? Oh yes. $7.50 a DAY for carpenters and $5.00 for laborers. A day! I'm sorry, but I have nothing but scorn for Dubai and people who purchase property there. Mind you it IS a muslim country, so you don't get a clear title on your property, ah yes, infidels don't get to own land in a muslim country, though, mumble mumble, they are trying to change that rule. Give me a break! Dubai. What a joke!!

The entire country is a facade. It is entirely built on Asian Pacific slave labor, Malaysia, Indonesia etc. Very much like Kuwait I'm sure the native population is getting close to being a minority.

Haven't you heard? The Arabs think of us as "friends" & liberators, not customers or clients.
And the Mexicans don't see us "cash-cows" but as an ideal they admire and a lifestyle they aspire to achieve.
And if you don't agree, I'll call you a bad name.
There. That settles it.
