as long as the founders are strong financially they will survive just look at arcapita & KFH! most of their investments were in real estate which took the biggest hit in history yet they survived!

^^ nope ..... just quoted some facts that's all....its not like all their investment are in good shape , one for example is Riffa Views , I guess I don't have to elaborate , moreover I think we here in the Middle - East should be well off in the recession in the coming few months if the oil prices keep rising like it did since the downturn ....

What do you consider to be real growth? Your economy had been growing, but the rate of growth took a huge slump recently. Thats all.

ok?? and ur point is??
seriously, thats like the stupidest thing u could say!! and.. inflation is not an era or a period to have "another one" inflation is a phenomena drived by basic instincts.. which in turn, could go drastically wrong.. or, in our case.. go right and cause another boom... at least i see it that way! Inflation gets a bad rap. Sure, runaway inflation is horrible for any economy. nobody is denying that... But is inflation always bad for society? tabee il9ara7a?? i dont think so. In fact, inflation can have some powerfully positive effects on the economy. i mean, u run a business.. you should know this!! moderate inflation allows firms with marginal pricing power to push through price increases under the disguise of inflation. If inflation is non-existent, any attempt to raise prices by firms will certainly be noticed and heavily scrutinized..... however!! if the public comes to expect that prices will rise over time due to inflation, it will be easier to raise prices. This is because consumers don’t pay too much attention to the magnitude of moderate price increases: they just notice it when it happens!

You are an idiot aren't you?
Higher oil prices = higher costs of production = higher costs of imports ( which whether you like it or not, is what our country is all about )
Don't argue with me, I'm in a bad mood today!

So you agree with inflation?
You idiot!
You can't control inflation, your currency is not independant first of all, and then your imports exceed your exports ( and please don;t even get started on "oil".... not even a portion of that can be considered as a contributor to your national deficit or surplus.. not in your country ).
There is no way your economy will boom when costs go up! You can sit here and try to fool yourself as much as possible, but you know it's impossible!
