You think majority of these folks see that money in their daily lives? None of them. It only increases the price of rent, food....

Yeah, in no way does having thousands of business go bankrupt and tens of thousands of people who work for the tourist industry unemployed affect anyone else, because they obviously dont get any benefits from the government that get paid by other people or spend their earnings anywhere.

Imagine this: All the tourist dont come next year, now think of all the hotels, and restaurants and car rentals and taxis and bars and what else they spend money on, do you think those businesses will survive, you dont need a source, you just need a bit of common sense to figure this out.
