5 thoughts aloud about the Olympics

5. The Olympic Village - it's a never-ending orgy.





Each Olympic athletes live in a small block, called the Olympic Village. It can also be called Seksilvaniey or Razvratburgom, because every village has become famous for that has become a center of vice and sexual indecency.

Imagine that you live in a city populated by young, athletic demigods with excellent tone and in peak physical condition. Imagine that they have devoted years of his life preparing his intense feverish flesh and trained for a short time in a few weeks, when they live in this small town. And they came together, all 10 thousand, and no parents, no wives and husbands, without a strict regime to which they are subordinate to this point, in an exotic location. And the free time they have mass. Let's reveal a little secret: at the Olympic Games 1988 in Seoul on the roofs of British Olympians have accumulated so many used condoms that Olympic Association had to ban sex in the street.

You can imagine how much was to accumulate such debris to the Olympic authorities to organize public dressing down of sports heroes? Imagine a humiliating conversation between Olympic officials and the gray-haired coaches on the topic of the introduction of the ban. And this is not an isolated incident. As we know, each Olympic village since time immemorial through impregnated genital juices.

By 1992, the organizers of the Olympics so alarmed the frantic sex, they started handing out free condoms to athletes, in order to prevent the spread of AIDS. At the Winter Olympics 2010 in Vancouver 6, 5 thousand athletes and sports officials were distributed 100,000 condoms. That is, 15 pieces brother / sister. And it is not enough. Right in the middle of the Games had to urgently address the resulting deficit. And we are not talking about how many times that people have sex without condoms. It turns out that even Las Vegas, the city of sin and vice, does not go to any comparison with the scale of copulation in the streets of the Olympic Village.

4. The host city is temporarily transformed into a police state.

To cover the enormous costs of the games, their organizers need sponsors world-famous name. As hosts, they have the right to authorize to sell their products only to these major brands. Very true. Of course, if you do not have a small shop and you do not try to take the chance of a lifetime. Then you're out of luck, because you better not even think about the use of words such as games, 2010, gold, silver, bronze, London, medals, sponsors, summer in his inscriptions or goods. If you are advertising your small business accidentally connect these words, you will have to pay a fine of 30 thousand dollars.

It's weird and crazy, but if you're trying to save their country from bankruptcy, it is necessary at times to make a deal with the devil. It's disgusting, but no one wants to be in the position of Greece (about it later).

But let's imagine that for some reason, for example, due to the fact that the Olympics ruined your parents and made you rich and unhappy orphan, you are strongly opposed to the Games. I do not think that you will be able to take advantage of the freedom of speech, in order to protest against the injustices of sports. The IOC requires that during the Olympic Games host city received special rights. Not just special rights in comparison with other cities in the country, although it goes without saying. No, we are talking about the right to break all local laws relating to freedom of speech. For example, the London contract provides that the billboards all over the city can rent only the city itself, and that they may only use the Olympic Games sponsors. If someone tries to install a shield against the Olympics, it will be the offender, because it is forbidden. The police even have the right to break into your home and to tear to pieces any posters and banners against the Olympics.

The emergence during the London Olympics "Big Brother" and "Police brands" led to the fact that underground artists created an entire genre of protest art. Inclusion of Olympic symbols in their work - is in itself an act of defiance. A lingerie store was forced to remove from the picture windows of the five rings of bras, because it was feared that people mistakenly take it for the entrance to the Olympic Village.

3. Olympics bankrupt your country.

Cities around the world are dirty and unkempt, when they begin the greatest game on the planet. It's like "The Hunger Games" adult world, without hunger, without murder and incest (we have not read the book). Being chosen as the organizer of the Olympic Games - a clear recognition of the fact that your city is great and worthy of the title of the organizer in the eyes of the entire planet. Do you think someone will stand up for the Olympics in Little Rock, Arkansas, or Cleveland? Organize the Olympic Games - it means that your city will be remembered and respected for decades. Is there a greater honor and reward than this?

But for the honor and award the Olympics to pay. It is not excluded that will have to pay the entire economy. Payment for Greece proved to be oh how hard.

Initially, the budget for the Games in Greece in 2004 was 4, 5 billion euros, but the real cost quickly doubled compared with the estimates. When all was said and done, the cost of the Games was 5% of the Greek GDP. Eight years have passed, and the country has not recovered from this debt. Vancouver at all given up hope to return the money invested in the construction of his fantastic-shmantasticheskoy Olympic Village, which later became a residential area. Today it is a ghost town, and the authorities are desperately trying to find a way to at least cover the losses.

Winter Olympics in Nagano city plunged into recession, because in the end the tax burden of it was about 30 thousand dollars for each urban family. But all of these financial disasters do not go to any comparison with Montreal (after Greece). They completed the construction of the Olympic Stadium in 11 years after the end of the Olympics, and for payment of debts related to the Olympic Games in 1976, it took no less than 30 years.

That is why the inhabitants of the Swiss Bern refuse to provide them a chance to hold the Olympics in 2010. For the same reason, and Detroit in 1972 refused such "honorĀ».

All this is very puzzling, when you begin to wonder ...

2. The highest bidder, will become the host of the Games.

Apply for the Olympics and make it very easy decision. Harder only to realize the slogan "We do not have homeless people, and all are happy and beautiful." IOC will carefully examine everything - from the city's sports facilities and transport infrastructure to the housing and the relationship of citizens to the Olympics. Do you know why Paris did not give the 2012 Olympics? Because the arrival day IOC general strike and public transportation was not working. Batz and everything. Olympics you can not see, France. Better luck next time. You can not pretend that you are ready to take thousands of people during a major sporting event.

And a lot of dollars spent on trying to convince the IOC members to choose your city. When analyzed the Winter Olympics 1998 in Nagano, it became clear that the entreaties of the members of the International Olympic Committee have spent tens of thousands of dollars. If Salt Lake City gave the members of IOC as a souvenir cheap cameras, soap dish, the Japanese are like candy handed out expensive camcorder. Although the maximum amount of gifts to IOC members was 200 dollars, the Japanese spent for this purpose an average of 5, 7 thousand dollars each. As a result, Nagano spent on its bid of about $ 24 million, or five times more than Salt Lake City. And the information about this appeared not once, since Nagano destroyed all their accounting to no one until they got.

It is therefore not surprising that Salt Lake City, courting the IOC members the next time, just moved out from the coils. After four failed attempts to get American Games Committee spent on "gifts, ski travel and scholarships" IOC members over $ 1 million. When the scandal broke, in all this dirt had to deal not anyone, and Willard "Mitt" Romney.

1. Poor people thrown out to make room.

Cities collect money for the Olympic Games, promising its citizens that it is profitable. As a result, they will receive first-class sports facilities, new residential neighborhoods, numerous jobs during the preparation for the Games, multi-ton revenues and the ability to fund sports programs for children and youth. Well, how not to fall in love with the Olympics?

But all these sports facilities and new residential areas should be placed somewhere, and this is usually somewhere in the living areas are poor. Because of the Games in 1996 were resettled 30,000 residents of Atlanta, and in 1988 their houses were expelled 720,000 residents of Seoul. Those who are not lucky, and who did not have a roof over his head, seized during the Olympics and were taken away from her eyes. But nothing can compare with China - on the eve of the 2008 Olympics, the Chinese authorities have expelled from their homes half a million people.

Even if residents forcibly evicted and they can confidently expect an increase in rent for their homes, and such powerful that pay for houses and apartments they will not afford. As for the fine sports facilities in Greece, 21 of the 22 Olympic stadiums has become a haven for vagrants and the rabble, as well as in the trash for bird shit. But hey, is this is not worth it to us once and for all, which country is the best in synchronized swimming?
