If this is really such a nonsense, why then the United Arab Emirates
have per capita income higher than the USA? Dear Nukolay, do you
really believe that this is actually due to the fact that the
industrious population of the UAE work harder and more productive
than the population of the USA? Why are the WS theorists so ready to
accept everywhere (mostly alleged) exploitation of the periphery by
the core, whereas being so reluctant to notice quite real facts of
the exploitation of the core by the periphery?!
