2012 Olympics

I, for one, hope New York is unsuccessful in its bid to host the games.

For one, it will probably put more small businesses out of business than even Rudy Gialiani managed to do during his tenure.

For another, the jobs it creates won't be for average New Yorkers. They'll be brought it from outside the city.

For another, most host cities actually LOSE money in the long run when hosting.

Finally, everytime I hear New Yorkers interviewed about it or speak with someone from New York, they say they don't want the damned thing. They consider it like I do - a big power grab by Bloomberg and Rudy and others that will benefit the millionaires and billionaires but not Ma and Pa New Yorkers.
