Do you speak anything but in hyperbole? Dubai has built more skyscrapers in 2018 than Detroit has in a decade.

I don't know how you can (rightfully) defend Detroit's economy endlessly while saying Dubai's economy is shit.

And plenty of places rely on tourism, what are you even talking about? Again, your city relies on automobiles to survive, whats the difference? And before you go on about how diversified Detroit is, remember you are also being reductionist about Dubail(a place I am sure you're not too familiar with).
