Online chess kills this sport

Are you shocked? I know you are. This opinion is not very popular among chess players. You will ask, how it is possible?

Let me explain you a few things.
First of all, in tournaments play less player. Especially weak player will ask: what to play in expensive tournamet as I don't have chance to win any prize and pay a lot of money for that? I can play with GM, IM or FM players for free via internet. Impossible? No! Please register at any chess website, try to gain reasonable rating and invite strong player for a game. There is no problem to play with them.
The other possibility is to play in online chess tournaments. If there is swiss system (usually it is), you have a big opportunity to play with them in first round.
Another one reason that online chess kills this sport is that there are not so many people who wants to teach kids playing chess. Especially in Poland 10-15 years ago there were a lot of people who could work with young people. Now there are not so many people. I don't mean big clubs, but the smaller ones.
Teachers want money for their work and I fully understand them.
The other thing is that if you play online, you can meet people from around a world. If you play chess in your area, you have still the same opponents and it may be a bit boring.
I'm wondering what do you think about my point of view mentioned above. Do you agree with this opinion?
