    probably the most ridiculous rebuttal you could have come up with. People will bring the infrastructure with them?

    Yes.

    Where people need food and have money, someone builds a produce stand, a convenience store, a grocery store, a supermarket, whatever other infrastructure the consumer base will support in their quest to do business. They want the money the consumers have, so businesspeople build the places where consumers can spend their money.

    But business only works when consumers actually have money. When they don’t have any money, nobody is interested in supplying them with goods and services, and nothing gets built.

    Put the money in their pockets, and watch businesspeople trip over themselves to sell them shit.
