With all the slow start on NPI and lockdowns, "because we do not want to crash the economy", I think that the games will go ahead because of commercial reasons. So much money has gone into it, that I think they need to try and recover money that they should have got last year....With reduced attendance I think there will be a huge financial loss, but television rights might bring in some income. In all I think the Olympics have become much much too expensive, and therefor much too easy for fraud, and so there are powerful interests that want to keep the show going for their own benefit (rather than that of the world). |

I always think that the Olympics should be held in the same place maybe on an island somewhere...... Save all that concrete and steel........ |

Should the Olympics go on? In two words, probably not. My opinion is that the Olympics long ago ceased to be what they were intended to be. They are unnecessarily convoluted, their system is gamed, and they are little more, in my opinion, than a humongous sideshow spectacle. Sound and fury signifying next to nothing. And for all of that, now a potential super-spreader event. |
