Santo Domingo.– Dominican President Leonel Ferandez announced that businesspersons from the
Balearic islands want to invest 3.7 billion Euros into the tourism industry in
the next four years.
The same group have already invested heavily in the
country but want to build a railway linking Santiago and Santo Domingo; likely to
significantly boost the country's development.
The Dominican Republic has
also recently seen a quasi-donation of $30 million for the reconstruction of
highways granted by the OPEC Fund for International Development; the
announcement of a number of new Aerocaribbean flights likely to attract
multi-destination tourists; and has accepted plans for the construction of a
ferry terminal costing $10 million at the Sans Souci tourist port.
Such
plans are yet another boost for a country where tourism accounts for 24 percent
of GDP and is fuelling economic growth. The contribution of tourism to
employment is now expected to rise from 555,000 jobs in 2008 to 743,000 jobs by
2018. By 2012, it is forecasted that the Dominican Republic will receive five
million annual visitors, a one million increase over expected 2008 visitor
totals.
And according to a recent report by the Dominican Republic
Ministry of Tourism, tourist arrivals for the first quarter of 2008 have already
increased by 8 percent compared to the first quarter of 2007; approximately 1.3
million guests selected the Dominican Republic as their vacation spot of
choice. Over 15 percent of these arrivals arrived at Puerto Plata on the
North Coast.

As the rate of poverty in the DR rises above 42%, "Spain ... invests 3.7 billion euros in tourism in Dominican Republic."
Wonderful.
This development of the tourist industry is magnificently bourgeois. The higher the Dominican poverty rate, the better the business climate. So, we find an inverse relatioship between poverty and competitiveness of the huge tourist industry . To be and stay competitive, the workers and the poor must get almost nothing from the tourists.
"How's the climate?"
"Oh, just unbelievable. Capital pours in everyday."
"And how's the poverty?"
"Just as unbelievable and rising rapidly as capital comes in."
"Excellent."
According to the World Bank, IMF, and CIA, poverty means living off less than $2 per day (using the purchasing power of 2001 dollars).
So, at least, 42% of Dominicans live off less than $2 per day. And rising.

The bourgeoisie clips coupons and goes to the gala.
The workers make things.
The middle class individual is similarly situated to the worker, but often this individual believes ... falsely ... he's bourgeois.
Say, a scientist researches an idea for 10 years while the bourgeois attends the galas.
The scientist finally discovers something worth billions.
The bourgeois rushes out of the gala to the lab and steals the scientist's notebook. "This is mine. You get out before I call security," the bourgeois threatens.
The bourgeois is a parasite. Nobody needs his gala stench.
The stealing of the bourgeois is protected only by the bourgeois state and bourgeois law which, in time and with struggle, revolution will cure.

I sometimes sounds like it ... but, really, please believe me ... I'm don't dislike the flow of capital and I know, from the proletarian bible, that capital flows toward the highest rate of profit.
After all, foreign capital flows into Cuba and into Venezuela. I believe its good.
Don't you see, I don't want to stop the flow. Oh no! Not me, God forbid.
But its so hard to explain to hardheaded or blockheaded pro-bourgeois ladies and gentlemen.
Take agriculture rather than more complicated tourist industry.
Say, the capital flows into farming and DR produces food.
Say, good rate of profit today is somewhere between 5% and 20%, but capitalist in DR farming demands 80%.
Then I say that ain't right; a lot of people will go hungry and some die.
Blockheaded pro-bourgeois says I'm against farming.

Say, the labor of worker adds $10 in value to a good in the process of production on a given week, day, hour or whatever.
Bourgeois pays the worker $2 for his labor and pockets the $8 of value stored in the good.
Then arrogant bourgeois gets up, farts, and brags "I made this good by pocketing the $8 of value, not the workers who processed the materials, assembled the parts of good and did the bookkeeping. Yeah, I made it or, at least, I stole it. And I'm gonna realized that $8 of value when I sell it."
Workers nobly reply "If you didn't have a bourgeois state with its savage FBI-trained police and Pentagon-brainwashed army backing you up, we would see who made the good, thief. You stole our labor."
The preposterous idea that the bourgeois made the good in question is like saying when a robber goes into a bank and holds it up, the robber "makes" the money in the cashier's drawer.

I actually agree with ol' bellache on this one ! A surpluss of food and the ability to sustain arable land is the first building block of society, the resorts are nice but they really dont 'create anything' If people are fed and have shelter then and only then will their collective will and attention turn to more extcestencial affairs like education and civic govt. I beleive there is alot of oppertunity in agriculture from a bussiness stand point.

But my view is that it's good when smiling tourists, with their ass hanging out their scanty garments, come with their money and its good when capital flows to accommodate their visits.
My question: Is the cut that people get from this tourist business ... on their own soil ... just or unjust?
For some reason, with something 42% poverty, the cut doesn't seem just.
Some of the bourgeois say "In the future, the people will get a just cut of the tourist dollar."
That's like Andy Warhol's "In the future, everybody will be famous for 15 minutes."
At any moment in the future, there is still an impending future to put off the just cut for the people or the 15 minutes of fame.

Innocence is a splendid thing, but it doesn't keep.
Profit only gratifies greed, that is, the pain connected with the idea of money. Money of course either relieves this pain or turns it into pleasure. The gratification of greed is not "all that really matters." The justice and liberality of the profitmaker matters more than the gratification profit gives.

And that is all that really matters.
Profits provides jobs.
Profits drive technology.
Profits cure diseases.
Profits stop poverty.
Profits stop starvation.
Profits saves lives.
Profits maintain freedom.
oooo
Innocence is a splendid thing, but it doesn't keep.
Profit only gratifies greed, that is, the pain connected with the idea of money. Money of course either relieves this pain or turns it into pleasure. The gratification of greed is not "all that really matters." The justice and liberality of the profitmaker matters more than the gratification profit gives.
oooo

Rubbish.
In the wrong hands ... namely, those bereft of justice and liberality ... profits do the exact opposite. NYC oil speculators, Colombian drug lords, securities and accounting fraud experts often gratify their greed by profitmaking.
But your goody-goody idea of these notorious profitmakers borders on the lunatic.
