EWOT: Rebuilding Pyramids, Mount Rushmore, The Colosseum (November 4th, 2011)

As I was walking, I started to think about the Roman Colosseum and how it a very strong structure although made by simple things such as rocks and other types of solids that were easily or creatively discovered in the past. I was thinking again about how much of a landmark it is now and how it would be rude for the present time to modernize the Colosseum. But how will that effect the general public and for that matter the economy? Well first society would obviously be angered that national landmarks are being taken down from historical times to be renovated, yet it is only to help preserve it. More so, if it were to be renovated, the economy would probably benefit from it because the attraction of tourist will not only pay for the amount used in viewing the monuments but pay others for visiting it over again with the family. It will not only update what looks like bad location where plays were demonstrated in Italy to a nice and stronger landmark that will have no possibility of decaying throughout time and diminishing from it's strong concrete structure to a pile of rubble.
