We would probably make more from tourism if we canceled the monarchy, and opened their history up to the public.
There is no evidence to back up your "we'd be worse off without them" point. and just stating that "you think we would" doesn't make it true either.
It's impossible to lose our history, but it's implausible to stick with an outdated system based on birth rights and privilege. Especially now as people are beginning to realise that as the 1%, we are being shafted.
