Default Re: Anyone think Dubai doesn't look good?

I don't see how this could be successful. With the amount of money going into these projects, the risk has to be astronomical. I don't think there are enough people in the world who will want to live there and the tourism business won't thrive if there are a bunch of rundown 100 story apartment buildings.

And really...who reasonably thinks "oh, we'll build an amusement park twice as big as Disney World and we'll attract twice as many people."

On a lighter note, it does look cool. I'd love to visit it before it's deserted
