tourism if properly handled is a great poverty reducer. of course, it isnt properly handled, but it is possible. look at china for instance. if you visit them almost all the money goes to developing the community you visit and is a big plank in their poverty alleviation and cultural preservation campaigns. rather than just sitting in some bougie assholes pocket

Cuba, as well, does a great job of channeling Havana tourists into an economic engine that enriches the entire island.

Building a beautiful city and hosting guests doesn't have to be some kind of nightmare business model.
