This is the first time I have ever heard anyone claim hosting Oly's will be good for an economy. 
It DESTROYS economy's, each and every one in the past has lost money and the IOC is the ONLY one that makes money on the taxpayers back 
There is a reason the IOC is struggling to find host city's, because it is a financial nightmare that will cost billions and billions of taxpayers money, while the IOC sneaks out the back door with burlap sacks with big dollar signs on them.
VOTE NO!!!!!

Every Olympic hosted has Not lost $. There has been successful Olympics. Cost Overruns are not the same as losing money on the Olympics, Cost overruns can be calculated. Success cannot! The Nordic Center in Canmore, Saddladome, COP, NAKISKA to name a few, are still making $. Tourism into a city that the World never heard of before the 88 Olympic Games is still coming to the City and Province. Billions and Billions ! How many are you suggesting ?
