When the $s dry up, folks get mad.

Ever read something and actually have no idea where the truth lies? It is always evasive and possibly subjective. The article below today leaves me with a thousand questions. I don’t believe that any state has earned the right to execute. Perhaps least of all Saudi Arabia. Lock the bad guys up, bring on the dungeons, because if you are wrong – you can’t take execution back. A distinct and clear possibility.

But this also makes me wonder how close Saudi Arabia is to cracking. Their attempt to retain market share by driving down the price of oil is costing them billions. Their war on Yemen is costing them billions. Their budget is near austerity for a state used to pacifying the masses with greenbacks. When the money stops flowing do the protests grow louder?
