[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because the countries/cities that still want to host the money-losing (well, money losing in a less-corrupt country) disaster known as the Olympics are the ones with scary corrupt leaders on a power trip that want to boast about how great their nation is (China, Brazil, Russia).[/quote] Right- Beijing’s only competition in the late stages was, wait for it, Almaty. The IOC is corrupt itself but they really need to step back and rethink the demands being placed on host countries. Politics aside, Beijing is really a terrible destination for the Winter Olympics to begin with. There continues to be a decent pool of candidates for the summer Olympics but winter is really getting to be slim pickings. Milan has it for 2026, maybe Stockholm will try again for 2030.[/quote]
