Answer:

B) Kuwait has a much smaller population than Saudi Arabia.

Explanation:

While it may seem that more barrels of oil would equal a higher standard of living, that is not necessarily the case. In the example here, Kuwait produces less oil per day than Saudi Arabia but has a higher standard of living. One good explanation for this is that Kuwait has a much smaller population than Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia has over 27 million citizens compared to Kuwait's 2.7 million. The GDP per capita in Saudi Arabia approximately $31,000, while in Kuwait it is over $42,000.

In President George W. Bush's State of the Union Address of January 29, 2002, he reviewed the nation's response to the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001. President Bush drew controversy when he then sketched his plan for dealing with terrorism in the months and years that lay ahead. According to the president, the greatest threat to America came not simply from Al Qaeda, but from an Axis of Evil—nations that represented the ultimate repression of human freedom. The three rogue states—Iraq, Iran and North Korea—not only oppressed their own people, but also actively aided terrorist groups. Defeating this Axis of Evil became the cornerstone of the Bush administration's plan to defeat global terrorism.
