I mean yeah, but it’s also just the difference between a stable democracy and an oil-dependent dictatorship, they would’ve been called crazy not to make use of the oil, which money has had large effects on the quality of life of citizens, but they also try to balance that with trying to hold themselves to a higher standard elsewhere. Think that’s pretty applaudable of them.
