But even with an economic disaster, certainly quality of life is far higher than in any Middle Eastern country. And Chile and Uruguay are better. The life expectancy in Saudi Arabia is on par with slum narco murder-states Honduras and Nicaragua, although early release from such a shithole isn't necessarily a downside. |

The King removed gasoline subsidies in Saudi. Result? The commoners quietly went along with it.
The democratic government of Mexico did the same for its gasoline subsidies. Result? Death threats, rioting, looting, and attacks on military convoys. |

Date: May 6th, 2017 3:24 PM Author: Bearded house sound barrier No, dude, look it up. Mexicans are fucking tantruming over the gas subsidies.
Meanwhile, the Saudi royal family continues to re-tool the petro-subsidies instead of making everything a handout. Yes, government development funds still underwrite everything but it's done smarter. You go to a government office now and there are far fewer employees and the ones there are more likely to be doing their jobs.
The Saudi foreign reserve and balance of payment situation has stabilized and is doing better. More stalled projects are approved this year. |

Date: May 6th, 2017 3:54 PM Author: Slate ratface Agreed that the government makes it less chill to live in a place like Iran but they will generally leave you alone unless you're a vocal political activist or dissident journalist.
There are A lot of places to hike in Iran brother and it's very safe. It's a very geographically diverse place too...you've got mountains, deserts, forests, beaches....everything you need.
In Guatemala I was told to avoid hiking in certain areas because local bros with machine guns would be waiting to mug or kidnap foreigners. I'm sure there are more chill places in Latin America where that wouldn't be an issue at all though.
To be fair, Im sure I'd enjoy life in Colombia or Brazil despite the crime |

If you're betting on which country will be better off in 25 years I'd take Iran over Colombia any time. |

Date: May 6th, 2017 3:42 PM Author: Racy den It depends on what you consider to be "better." And both regions are so diverse that it's hard to do a fair comparison. I would take Dubai by a mile over Haiti or Bolivia, for example. That said, on balance I would prefer Latin America. Almost all of Latin America has high crime and shitty infrastructure, so if either of those is a deal breaker for you, then you're better off in the Middle East. However, Latin America has incredible food and some of the best natural beauty in the world. And in particular, Brazil has world-class beaches with caipirinha and 18-year-old's wearing "fila dental" (which literally means "dental floss") bikinis who love gringos. I'll take that over any Middle Eastern country where alcohol is forbidden and the women are in burkas. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3606371&forum_id=2#33245279) |
