I'd be willing for my taxes to go up by $10 bucks if it goes to athlete development. 30 million x $10 bucks is a lot of money to work with. On your tax forms, they should have an optional section, where you can give some money to certain causes. Some things I'm willing to chip in more than my share. As long as none of it goes to the IOC. Or hockey for that matter (I'd rather they gave other sports a boost).

I'm actually surprised there aren't any charity drives or public fundraisers to help these athletes out. You think people would be willing to help that cause.
