While I'd love to take the time and expend the energy to show you how ridiculous that opinion is, I think this guy from another forum summed it up pretty well...

The Olympics is a great thing: a showcase of the pinnacles of human physiology and international fraternity. Even with all the corporate guff on top, it is still at its core a good thing. The world isn't going to end because we're running the Olympics, and, I hate to break it to you guys saying that we should spend it on other things, £11bn isn't very much.
So yeah. Screw this thread. I'm sick of everyone whining about money all the time like it's the most important thing ever or debt like even the tiniest bit is going to destroy the world.

I always look forward to the games, and am very much interested to see what the UK does with these ones.
