The flip side of this argument is that the royal family essentially sits on tremendous amounts of money. With this wedding, they'll be spending millions on food, flowers, clothes and more....and all of that generates jobs. Yes, the taxpayers there will pick up the bill for the security...but those are jobs too.

Not saying it's right, but I don't see the royal family just outright donating those millions....but if they spend them, generating work and jobs....that creates a positive ripple effect economically that will benefit an awful lot of people.
