If 2,000,000 tourists come to Jamaica per year and spend $1,000, where does money go?

Doesn't this thread kind of remind you of the "water discolored" thread?

Pseudo-Economist Tourists and "cut and paste links" Foreign Business owners (this time) who think they know the runnings here in Negril and all over Jamaica based on Internet searches and a week or two visit a year.

You know what they say about doing something over and over again and expecting a different result?

Anyone who lives in Jamaica certainly heard about the 2mil visitors this year and understands firsthand how taxing works.

Just my take on this thread.

Regardless of ones know how, experience, or greater understanding of all things Jamaica, the truth is the truth. Jamaica's greater issues are not IMF or any other outside force. Jamaica's issues are their own and can only be fixed by Jamaica.

I agree.
