Of course if all the people stopped going to their beach, they would be happy only for as long as their coffers are full.

Then they'll be broadcasting on all stations, in all media how they NEED tourists badly, spouting the old line "Come up and visit our SINGING Beach!" You know, come up and don't forget your wallet!

They wouldn't be happy if tourists stopped going to their beach, or their town, as they had become accustomed to having all that extra money year after year. You think they would just say "We don't need those extra hundreds of thousands of dollars, we are just fine as is"?

I doubt they would. Once any town gets a taste of tourist dollars, they expect it every year from that point on, so much so that they write it into their town budget. And if and when those dollars don't show up, they scramble around in disaster recovery mode to make up that cash loss.

I am a legend in my own mind!
