Its not a binary State. You don't switch it on and there is a ready made economy

No shit! Where i said that?

I know perfectly this because i lived in some of these turist town and heck, the region i come from survives on tourism probably, and i an telling you, most people that complain will likely do nothing to improve the situation (eg: opening some bussiness that isn't made around tourism), maybe they will even make the situation worse by arrassing some tourists

So you haven't grasped the broader point I was trying to make. The established tourism industry literally kills alternatives. Because of the inherent risk involved in trying new things people will almost always gravitate towards thr established.

And I'm certain that every inhabited region on this planet is able to develop a somewhat complex economy on their own and even interconnected with neighboring regions when left alone. Is it going to be silicon valley? No, but that really isn't what we are talking about here.

Edit: also please don't make this a personal debate and keep emotions out of it. I didn't insult you by stating the things in my last response but at worst understood you wrong and at best was just right. This doesn't nerd to be about winning but could be a conversation and exchange of ideas to gain something from. Even though it has started in a down vote wave in good old reddit style.

They grasped it, your point is just factually wrong.
