Yep! It would make the average person think America is "azz-backwards." Just today on CNBC they
announced that Apple is now the worlds richest company by surpassing Exxon-Mobil. By observing
this nice architecture on that tower it really makes one wonder what in the hell is going on.....

Kingdom Tower? I thought this was about that magazine that the witnesses give out on Saturdays.

At least they doing something with it by putting people to work with these projects.
They building shat like only the USA used too. We could not get a project like this off the ground these days for nothing. Environmental issues along would hold it up 10 years. Bird lovers would say the building would kill migrating birds or some bush would be deprived of sunlight. :lol:
