Perhaps she should consider a ghetto theme village--it would cost almost
nothing to build. You could have various levels of rides. The D-ticket
rides would include unemployment, mugging, and hopelessness to the
background music of self-serving political speeches in ebonics about how
it's all someone else's fault. The E-ticket ride would be a chance to
loot and burn. You could buy such native crafts as drugs and numbers.
For entertainment you could have trials in which criminals of your color
were freed  because you didn't like someone's attitude, and criminals of
another color were retried repeatedly until found guilty of police
brutality. We could name it Watersland.
