When it comes to building up the winning countries infrastructure in support of hosting the games, it always, always is about ultimately feeding that money into the pockets of the rich and the connected. It doesn't matter whether the country is first world or third world, the same people are the winners every single time and the poor, the losers. The olympics are the world's largest and longest running Ponzi scheme.
