No! This NGU mess needs to focus on our local issues at home. Our rainways and buses, not even working anymore, the ports are a mess, water and electricity crisises, crime rates getting higher and not to mention mass corruption at, even, the local levels! No, our govt. needs to focus on our actual country for ONCE!

I don't believe that any country ever used the Olympic games to benefit the local populace after the fact. The rich businessmen took all the money and ran. Prove me wrong.

The power grid failures are not the priority when there is an Olympic opportunity. Millions will be spent, just talking about it. It's a multi-billion dollar Mega Stadium nobody will ever use again. It's a great idea. A special grocery tax is a perfect way to pay off the debt without overburdening statesman's and creditors without unnecessary taxation. Perhaps a 99 year bond with a balloon payment at the end would be the perfect vehicle to get everybody on board.
