The IOC doesn't pay for the Olympics, the cities stupid enough to bid on the Olympics get to eat the entire budget. Brazil is predictably broke from the World Cup, and has it's own political turmoil ongoing, so it's no shocker this is shaping up to be the worst Olympics ever. I'm sure what we see on TV will be carefully monitored to ensure we only see the good things, but I'm sure there will be horror stories aplenty from the athletes that will be coming out.
