One thing that really swung me from a 'yes' to a 'no' was that so few other cities want to bid on these anymore. If it's such a sure fire way to stimulate an economy and to advance a city on a global tourism scale, then why aren't tons of cities putting in bids?
Sure, these games are going to be under the 'new and improved' system, but if it's so new and improved, why aren't there more bids for 2026? Cities and countries around the world are reaching the same conclusion, that the Olympics are a bad deal for the host.
