No I'm looking at the big picture and given the amount of refugees allowed in it is a major loss economically and culturally in the short term and quite likely in the long term as well. The US did immigration right before only allowing

Tourism is a low value-added industry or not it's not something they can afford to loose at the moment. It's not like all the citizens of Italy are highly skilled workers that would be working a better paying job if they lost thei

Being a humanitarian is admirable but at the end of the day it's a luxury that may or may not pay off in the long run. Just the same way you don't give your money to a beggar on the street when you can barely afford to survives yo

As far as I'm aware tourism is not a short term thing there will always be tourists coming and leaving this is an constant revenue steam in its own right. So I don't get what you mean.

They really just need to search for ways to manage the crowds instead alienating them to be honest. Tourist bring a lot of money to local businesses you really shouldn't be killing the goose who lays the golden eggs if you ask me.

I found the quote “tourists go home, refugees welcome” quite funny. So what their basically saying is they would rather kick out tourists that bring in and spend quite a lot of money effectively boosting the economy in favour of some refuge

Not to mention even a study that didn't pan out still has a lot of data that may be used for something else in the future. Even a failed creation has parts that can be re used in other projects after all.

Don't you use websites that have a dark theme more instead. I always preferred websites that allowed me to select a dark theme and it seems to be more and more popular to do that. Hell even you-tube does that now.
