I worked as a teacher for only 666 US !the irony is that I am lucky because I worked and I do not have big family ! could you imagine the situation for those who have 3-5 children and responsible of their parents? imagine ! 7 hours and full duties with a shit of money ! when the king order a bonus in salaries which is 5%, traders raised their merchandises prices directly 20-50 % some say 70% .. How come we a rich ! we are the poorest country in the world because we have resources but cant benefit from them. u see?

This is typical behavior going back generations after generations being repeated because no new information and knowledge is flowing into the culture and brains. The ones currently in control fight very hard to keep control even if it means creating lies and rules to keep control and the status quo going so they don’t lose the power they have.

Even though a women does all the work of having the baby – who is rewarded and respected regarding the baby? The father. The more children he has, the more virile he is considered. In the past it was important to have a lot of children because it ensured your future survival. But in today’s easy life, it’s not so important.
And, as far as the prejudice goes against foreigners, men have legislated all the rules to make men seem like “super men”. When it’s against the law for most normal behavior for women and foreigners, men will win all the time.
The entire culture and laws are designed to support total prejudice and mistreatment of the people under you, from the King down through the family structure of husband as ruler over wife(s), to wife ruling over children, to ruling over workers, down to the lowest worker. Everyone is insecure in their position, so they mistreat everyone under them to keep control and consolidate their position. The entire population is frustrated and bored so they abuse anyone under them to make themselves feel better about themselves and their crappy life

Basic psychology about dysfunction.

But no one wants to be the first to make the changes.
