My children are in the 35 to 45 year old demographic. They are both very outdoors oriented.

They told me that they and most of their friends voted no for this very reason. They see spending big money on infrastructure that only elite athletes use, like for luge, skeleton, ski jump or bob sled, makes no sense to them.

On the other hand, they would encourage spending on infrastructure for skiing, skating, curling, hockey and the like.
