so Vancouver games in 2010 cost $7b but we can do it for about 65% of the cost 16 yrs into the future? alrightly then......

remember, these numbers are mythical, because it always depends on what stuff you include or choose not to include.

I can't believe security could be less (even without the port). the world has changed in the 7 yrs since Vancouver. seems that attacks in London and paris are starting to become regular occurances now - so move the yardsticks another 7 yrs into the future......

to me once you head down this path, it is a very slipperly slope as there is no way to put the brakes on anything and you need to finish.

based on every governemtn project I have seen I'd have to believe the real cost will be $10B with a deficit of $4B.......

to me the city would be better off skipping the games, and just upgrading facilities so you are left with the same net result.
