...ease the global financial crisis? I keep hearing, off every person I have spoke to, that for an outsider to visit America, they are treated badly by the customs officials. I am told that they are spoken to badly, roughly manhandled, locked in a cell for hours on end without access to basics such as water, and generally treated, without any valid reason, like criminals. This is regardless, I am told, of their nationality, or origin of travel. Apparently, American citizens do not experience this kind of treatment, nor do they witness it.
The reason for the question is this: Assuming of the information I have received is correct, that foreign citizens are treated badly, is this, and has it been, deterring people from travelling to the states? With less foreign visitors to the US, has the US economy suffered? Are bars closing because the visitors are not holidaying in the country? Are clothes sales down, because of lack of tourism, which also shuts down the clothes manufacturers?
We all know that the worlds economies are linked to that of the US dollar, through oil and such being sold by the dollar. So, as the US dollar has decreased in value, as a direct result of businesses closing, has this economic suffering then been transferred to the rest of the world?
Could the US economy be stabilized by treating tourists with respect and decency, making people wanting to go to America, and so spending money and increasing the job market?
Because looking at it, it seems if the US economy stabilized, the rest of the world would too, as their money systems are linked...
This is a valid query. Any and all thoughts are very welcome and appreciated.
Please, let me know what you think...
