Why any city wants the Olympics is beyond me. The games are terribly expensive, construction will last for years, traffic is horrific, and security is a nightmare. Half the seats at the events will stay empty and the taxpayers will be left with a huge bill. Let the Frogs have it; they deserve it!

Socialists, Communists, and other tyrannical regimes LOVE big pork projects that glorify them.

I agree. It cost Greece $5 billion. Let France have it.
