True, true, and like I said, I'm not sure about the whole not paying rent thing. Really it is one of those darned if you do darned if you don't situation.........let it crumble, tourism goes down, economy goes down......have the taxpayers pay everything.....have the RF pay everything....... things like that. I think the RF should chip in some, and I do agree that another 1 million pounds could do a lot of good somewhere else as well. There just isn't an easy solution to this.
It's great that ordinary people are donating, but there are still thousands of people that don't! If you really think about it, if everyone would donated to their maximum compacity, anything the RF or any other rich people donated would just be a bonus. Then you could say snootily "Who needs their money anyway" LOL!!! Can you tell I love getting people to help those who are less fortunate? ^_^
I understand about the Nottingham people for example, but on the other hand, there is a bit of a filter effect. Even though tourism might not directly effect them, it still has its benefits. For example, someone who benefited from tourism brings that money to another place, spends it there, and so on and so forth.
As for the large percentage not bothering, isn't that true in most places/ countries though? Once you've lived in one place for awhile, you want to go somewhere else and see places other than the one you live in.
I love the idea of a begging bowl Too perfect.
Oh! I just read that the Queen is going to be a Grandmother again!! Too fun. I may be a bit behind, but my internet has been screwy. Gives me warms fuzzies though.
