The 2010 winter Olympics are supposed to be held in Vancouver. Although the thought of it is very exciting, when it came down to the actual details I was not a fan. The Olympic games watch group voiced its concerns again yesterday. They want a referendum.
It is now estimated that the games will cost $2.4 Billion dollars instead of the $6 Million presented in the initial budget in 2004! And guess who's paying? Of course we are. The tax money that is supposed to guarantee our quality of life will be spent creating an illusion of a bloom for a couple of years and then dropping us into debt like what happened in Alberta. You don't have to be a genius to figure you don't spend more than you can afford on a one night party!
