>I am in Spain (where people, imho wrongfully, think tourism is ruining everything) and I dont see the issue; my wife and myself make enough in the summer to not have anything to do the rest of the year.

Do you have any self reflection to see why this is a problem for other citizens who aren't making bank from tourism 3 months per year and actually need to work 12 months a year but also have to deal with the issues tourism ads for them: higher rents, higher prices, extra traffic, extra noise at night from your drunken patrons, crowds, pickpockets, scammers, etc?

You arguments is just "over tourism is not a nation/city problem because it's making me rich". You can't make this up. I couldn't be as oblivious about it if I tried.
