Greece was screwed regardless of the Olympics. And yes, you were being dramatic. That was obvious, and it didn't help your case.

You mean like tax breaks for the rich, allowing corporations to skip out on tax bills altogether, or even giving them massive refunds on taxes they never paid? You're right, we spend our money on some really stupid things that only benefit the few rather than the many. I guess it just depends on who should gain benefit from the money being spent? The uber rich or the general public.
Do you actually think there is a special arena tax fund that is only available for the arena? Interesting, do you think there is a red light fund for traffic lights too?
