Re: Iran dances on America's grave
The culture (or lack of it) in Iran and Iran's government are the reason for poverty and suffering and lack of development in Iran--- not the United States, nor America's dollar policy.
If you were a corporate CEO, let's say the CEO of General Motors or General Electric or General Mills or General Dynamics, would you choose to relocate or expand into Iran? Even if you were the CEO of an oil company, would you choose to relocate or expand into Iran? I doubt it.
Yes, the United States has too many worthless paper dollars in circulation around the world, but America's dollar hegemony is more of an excuse for Iran's lack of development than a reason. Companies thrive in America not just for the size of its domestic and North American market but for the rule of law in America, its capitalism, its free markets, its tradition of limited government, its safety, its technological innovation and progress, its scale economies, its competition, its low cost of doing business, its freedoms and human rights, not to mention its supportive universities.
What is there for business in Iran?
