Answer: Because Qatar is more forward thinking than the US.
- duaneb 14y agoYea, it's not like people flock from all over the world to get a tertiary education in the US. But seriously, a tiny country with an absolute monarchy can change much faster than a country with massive, formalized bureaucracy/checks and balances. This can be good and bad.
- netcan 14y agoAn absolute monarchy with near absolute control over the main (and large) source of income. This is something you need to really take a second to let sink in. The King (or prince) can decree, fund and away it goes. Billion dollar universities, palm shaped islands, pyramids. Just to put it into perspective, the current King took over the country when his Dad was overseas in the 90s.
