I heard on John Bachelor last night that 35% of Egypt’s workforce works for the government. It’s economy cannot sustain itself with that much of the worforce getting paid by the government. It takes decades for someone with a technical degree to get a job anywhere in Egypt because there is no industry. They hate us because we have supported the Mubarak government for 30+ years.

Someone there will hate us no matter what we do.

They hate us because we are not Muslim - and we have a much higher standard of living than them. They will hate us for a long time, if the Lord waits.

The reason Egypt has little or no industry is that their internal system of capital is nonfunctional. As for their hating us, we have allowed ourselves to be the whipping boy for every batch of losers the turd world can heave up on the beach. Means nothing in particular.
