white people are a natural resource too, use them.
David Parker
Isn’t it weird how whenever whites do better, it’s MUH SUPERIOR DNA but whenever someone else does better than them there’s a whole backstory attached to it? Why are whites so insecure?
David Johnson

Qatar’s oil and natural gas resources are the country’s main economic engine and government revenue source, driving Qatar’s high economic growth and per capita income levels, robust state spending on public entitlements, and booming construction spending, particularly as Qatar prepares to host the World Cup in 2022. Although the government has maintained high capital spending levels for ongoing infrastructure projects, low oil and natural gas prices in recent years have led the Qatari Government to tighten some spending to help stem its budget deficit.

In psychology we call it a self serving bias
>A self-serving bias is any cognitive or perceptual process that is distorted by the need to maintain and enhance self-esteem, or the tendency to perceive oneself in an overly favorable manner.[1] It is the belief that individuals tend to ascribe success to their own abilities and efforts, but ascribe failure to external factors.[2] When individuals reject the validity of negative feedback, focus on their strengths and achievements but overlook their faults and failures, or take more responsibility for their group's work than they give to other members, they are protecting their ego from threat and injury. These cognitive and perceptual tendencies perpetuate illusions and error, but they also serve the self's need for esteem.[3] For example, a student who attributes earning a good grade on an exam to their own intelligence and preparation but attributes earning a poor grade to the teacher's poor teaching ability or unfair test questions might be exhibiting the self-serving bias. Studies have shown that similar attributions are made in various situations, such as the workplace

lmao you are not even white you disgusting chong chong loang dong faggot, i will slice your throat rly fast if you keep talking nigger XDDDD

Qatar’s reliance on oil and natural gas is likely to persist for the foreseeable future. Proved natural gas reserves exceed 25 trillion cubic meters - 13% of the world total and, among countries, third largest in the world. Proved oil reserves exceed 25 billion barrels, allowing production to continue at current levels for about 56 years. Despite the dominance of oil and natural gas, Qatar has made significant gains in strengthening non-oil sectors, such as manufacturing, construction, and financial services, leading non-oil GDP to steadily rise in recent years to just over half the total.
Following trade restriction imposed by Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Bahrain, and Egypt in 2017, Qatar established new trade routes with other countries to maintain access to imports.
Cooper Rivera
Half of Qatar's GDP is oil money.
We should go to war for oil, why spend trillions in American treasure when we could just take it?
Ethan Mitchell
Yes, a developing country is using its natural resources to develop itself... You know europe did this all last century too right?
Austin Hughes
While there is no doubt NZ could and should be doing better, almost the entire economy of Qatar is derived from oil/gas extraction and exports, if NZ had those resources we would have a much bigger economy
Ryder Campbell
one is surrounded by oil fields. the other is surrounded by ocean
Jaxson Cruz
Also consider that Qatar, being a non European country, hasn't been demonized and propagandized to do a bunch of stupid shit like flood their country with third world parasites like NZ has, if it weren't for them holding us down we would be doing much better.

Over the past 40 years, the government has transformed New Zealand from an agrarian economy, dependent on concessionary British market access, to a more industrialized, free market economy that can compete globally. This dynamic growth has boosted real incomes, but left behind some at the bottom of the ladder and broadened and deepened the technological capabilities of the industrial sector.
Per capita income rose for 10 consecutive years until 2007 in purchasing power parity terms, but fell in 2008-09. Debt-driven consumer spending drove robust growth in the first half of the decade, fueling a large balance of payments deficit that posed a challenge for policymakers. Inflationary pressures caused the central bank to raise its key rate steadily from January 2004 until it was among the highest in the OECD in 2007 and 2008. The higher rate attracted international capital inflows, which strengthened the currency and housing market while aggravating the current account deficit. Rising house prices, especially in Auckland, have become a political issue in recent years, as well as a policy challenge in 2016 and 2017, as the ability to afford housing has declined for many.

Your country has a population of 10 million, 5 times larger than qatar but your GDP is currently sitting at 205 270
Not good....

Expanding New Zealand’s network of free trade agreements remains a top foreign policy priority. New Zealand was an early promoter of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) and was the second country to ratify the agreement in May 2017. Following the United States’ withdrawal from the TPP in January 2017, on 10 November 2017 the remaining 11 countries agreed on the core elements of a modified agreement, which they renamed the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP). In November 2016, New Zealand opened negotiations to upgrade its FTA with China; China is one of New Zealand’s most important trading partners.

country happens to be on one of the biggest oil reserves -- they get western countries to drill all the oil and have never developed or produce indigenous technology to do it VS normal country with an average amount of natural resources
Joshua Sullivan
even if we had them that horsey looking cunt in the top job would destroy any chance of utilising it because ''muh enviromental responsibility'' ''muh offsetting global warming'' cunt doesnt realise two factorys in some chinese peasant village pump out more C02 in a week than NZ does in a year and nothing we do is gonna change squat
Nicholas Smith
third most oil-wealthy country in the world.
This is exactly why we should be going to war for oil.
Michael Campbell
New Zealand - white. Sure user anon sure.
Nathaniel Murphy
Why are you retards bumping this thread? Aussies are getting stabbed in the shitter by muslims and then asking why we live at the bottom of the planet with no oil.
Dylan Morris
Quatar may have good GDP, but what is life like for the poorest within that country?
borgenmagazine.com
>enormous oil and natural gas reserves account for more than half of all government revenue
> migrant workers now comprise around 90 percent of the country’s population and workforce
>the data is typically based only on the incomes of native Qatari citizens, a demographic of Qatari society whose population is estimated to be about 250,000
>the lowest paid migrant worker will, on average, earn about $1,920 per year working in construction
Therefore, NZ (as badly as they are currently performing), is still beating them.
Based NZ bros.

Reminder that GDP is a jewish trick. If you trade an asset back and forth multiple times you increase the GDP without any actual economic growth.

High GDP doesn't signify better quality of life, it only measures the size of an economy. This is like looking at someone's weight, without knowing context, such as a person's height. China has a large GDP, that doesn't make it a good country
Jaxon Hill
This. The environmentalism will not allow for oil exploration or drilling.
