The outgoing parliament had disappointed voters by becoming entangled in side issues and ignoring the issue that now concerns Kuwaitis the most: the economy. The trouble is that the constitution guarantees a job to every citizen, and as a result, the government employs 93 percent of all employed Kuwaitis. A swollen bureaucracy can not continue to absorb all workers, and private employers are unwilling to employ Kuwaitis when a non-Kuwaiti costs less and works harder. The new parliament may only make this situation worse. pubtype: Periodical doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
