I stopped watching the Olympics a few years ago when I learned what they mean for the host country and particularly for the poor people of that country.

Yeah, it's a pretty comprehensively shitty organizational and financial thing. I still enjoy watching the competition itself, though.

I really wish they'd just hold it at the same site in Greece/somewhere guaranteed to be cold every time.

But where are the corrupt backroom deals and golden handshakes and money laundering in that, I guess.

Greece in August is the opposite of cold, though. Also, Greece is more than broke so hosting just the Olympic Games just once would probably break their neck entirely by now.

Yeah I mean the winter Olympics would obviously have to be held elsewhere, but the anon below summed up about how a permanent site could help Greece's economy better than I could.

Holding it at the same site in Greece (for the non-winter Olympics) actually sounds like it might help the Greek economy, because it would lead to lasting infrastructure improvements rather than a spending bubble that drained resources from poor areas and people to build temporary structures. And Greece's economy needs all the help it can get. I tried looking up Greece's mountainous areas to see if there was enough snow to support the Winter Olympics being held there as well, but it looks like most of the mountain ranges there are only reliably snowy in the areas that are part of other countries like Bulgaria and Albania. But yeah, too much money to be made in corruption. Sigh.
