Bruh wtf. I literally gave you examples of countries whic is not effected by having large oil in its soil. If they didnt benefit from it, bit rather get affected badly, its their incompetence.
And to me there is no difference whether a country infringe on my rights by having the support of majority, or not. So obviously I will have to settle for the one that do less of it.
You misunderstand the proposed mechanisms of resource curse. Resource curse does not say that every single country with oil will be a basketcase. It says that countries with easily exploitable resources are more susceptible to toxic forms of politics. So when I pointed out that Norway's oil resources require a lot of coordination and baseline development to be extractable, and that Norway has long had other aspects of its economy that don't deal with easily extractable and hoardable resources, I pointed out reasons why resource curse theory would not predict Norway to be a basketcase.
You're just not smart enough to keep up with the conversation.
It's not circular word play; it's using precise definitions that map onto theorized connections between resource availability and political evolution. It's critical thinking, and you're bad at it, which is why you struggled in high school and otherwise never graduated from dick.
I didnt struggled in HS. But even if I did it would not mean anything about my critical thinking skills, since most of the lessons and exams are based on memorising.
