After the war was over (Desert Storm), I was able to spend a short time in Kuwait City and various cities in Saudi Arabia. The one thing that always stuck out to me, was that everybody seemed to be driving Mercedes Benz and wearing alot of gold. Perhaps the RV will just bring the Iraqi people up to "par" with the rest of the oil rich nations. $46,800.00 per year seems to be a fair wage for the average Iraqi (depending on their job), considering the overall wealth potential of their nation. Just my thoughts...
