Yeah, the Olympics are a sham. I hate taxes anyway, and to have them spent on a bunch of crap drives me nuts. SLC is pretty close to me and does need better roads, but other than that I think tax money going to a business is ridiculous. The "bribery" scandal made me laugh at first. I mean how can you bribe the IOC and who cares. It's like bribing a whore to have sex with you. Can't be done because that's just how they do business. Now I don't think it is quite as funny because their bribes now cost me money. I would like the Olympics if they came to our country because of bribery and we profited from the games. I just know I am overtaxed if the government spends money on sports. Pure theft of my money.
