For that price, I am very comfortable saying yes in a plebiscite.
Except some of the proposals suggested we should just use the dome and no new arena. So what if we vote yes but then are illustrious leaders spend on Olympic security and yadayada with little or nothing to show for it in legacy infrastructure?

Honestly I’d rather vote no then. On the flip side, our marvy mayor could reconsider everything, say hey Rachel how about some carbon tax money to clean up a horrifying old environmental mess, and we could have a world class arena and stadium for Olympic hosting. So give me a vote but with a few yes options then...
