If tourism is the "oil" of the 🇩🇴 ❓
Is the natural beauty of the country (a national resource) being used for the benefit of the entire country?
Take Saudi Arabia for example?
What is the poverty rate there?
I am a stone cold capitalist.
And therefore I know you can't get anything done if you cannot get the capital in the first place.
I was not born with capital.
So, you get it by being smart, hustling or grinding.
I'm a little short in the smarts department so I had to grind it out.
I believe there is such a thing as "ethical capitalism".
But it is up to each individual capitalist to implement.
If public resources are being used by the capitalists they must give back.
If they do not, then the government must step in.
The government is suppose to be the entity that takes care of the people.
I'll stand by and watch and see if it happens here in 🇩🇴.
I have traveled all over the world.
And the biggest difference I have seen between developed and developing nations is the respective governmental investment in infrastructure.
Infrastructure creates opportunities for capitalists and better living conditions for the general public.
This is not a response to
@johne post #91.
But simply another opinion as to why I believe infrastructure (the basic kind that helps all people) is so important.
