I’m kind of tired of us depending on tourism to pump up the economy, and at best it would be a wash with yet another round of public-financed sports palaces. Let the oil-rich emirates, less money to spread to the terrorists.

I don’t know if we’re depending no it, for one thing this World Cup isn’t even until 2022. But facts are facts and the fact is that bringing in a couple hundred thousand tourists for a month would be a fat lot of money for those regions. And it probably wouldn’t include spending on new stadiums, I don’t think any new ones got built for the last one that was here.
