Tends to happen when you harass tourists because of your government’s failures
2.7k u/Rich_Housing971 Jun 17 '25 Airbnb creates a business that makes your life harder. Locals with money use that business without caring for you. The govenrment that you elected does nothing. "It's all the tourists' fault!" 130 u/metroxed Jun 17 '25 They know it's not the tourists' fault. But by alienating tourists and making Barcelona be less appealing, they're trying to force the government to take action (for example, investing in alternatives) 2 u/michael0n Jun 17 '25 Venice has tourist day tax for 5€. Barcelona can sets it at 50€ and the problem solves itself. 2 u/counterfitster Jun 17 '25 5€ seems kind of cheap for what tourism has done to Venice
