Supposedly it boosts the economy. Unlike alternative uses of their money.

Yes, I saw that. We should of course all, regardless of age, do the same for our own economies!

I admit I am a minor part of the local economy, but every day, I go a mile down the road to my local Meijer store. I buy two 25-ounce cans of cold beer, and a Detroit Free Press newspaper. And whatever else strikes my fancy. I already have the Lansing paper delivered. Assuming acceptable weather, Upon my return I go porch sittin".

I gave up directly supporting the local economy in 2006. But I continue to drive Mrs T to supporting the local economy on a daily basis, in moderation.
A bus station is where a bus stops. A train station is where a train stops. On my desk, I have a work station.

If you are seeing an apparent paradox, that means you are missing something.

I want to move up from the 'supporter' to the 'cornerstone' category.

Well it does seem a bit oxymoronic. But upon reflection, my wife assures me my mental capacity is limited, and I use supplemental oxygen most of the time, so...

Now they are thinking about promoting tourism.

I guess the drink-more campaign wasn’t working.
