    The gulf monarchies’ oil will dry up, and they will collapse under their own weight.

    … Probably not. But hey, a man can dream…

      They’re pushing massively into green energy. I think they are the next biggest investors after China if I remember correctly.

        They can try, but they don’t really have the massive advantages there. With oil they basically get >1000% margins because it’s just there and ready to be tapped, and their whole societal structure is based around spending that money like it’s water.
