Or when your broom and put in under sofa

That example is so accurate, it's actually scary.

Exactly!!

This is how the entire world works. How things seem is always more important than how things are. Suppose you work on the bottom rung of the ladder in a retail job for a big company. Your supervisor is one rung above the bottom, with his own boss 2 rungs above bottom. All 3 of you are unimportant in the greater scheme of things. Think of the corners that get cut and the turds that get polished when your boss is preparing for a visit from his own supervisor. Think of the resources that are taken from places that aren't currently under the microscope in order to get a pass mark. Maybe extra staff are put on for that one day and your store runs on the bare minimum for the rest of the week, treading water. Now remember there's at least 20 more rungs of the ladder to climb before you're at the very top of the company. If there's that great of a blatant conflict of interest on the very bottom of the ladder, what kind of stunts are being pulled further up?

And under the bed

NotASuicidalRobot Resources and money that could have been used to support people and give them better opportunities. All wasted on a superficial, performative, ego-stroking event to boost one country’s image while it’s people languish in poverty.

1.5 million people live in Rio’s favelas. The total spent on the rio Olympics and was $13 billion (A significant Portion was tax payer Money). So if they would’ve taken the money spent on the Olympics and gave it to every favela resident, they each receive a check of $8666.

And I definitely think it would have been far more economical to repair the broken North Zone communities. In the long run, this would give a greater return to the economy too as these people would be valuable contributors to the workforce.

now it's hosting a hospital

It’s 2020 and the Tokyo Olympics have been officially cancelled.

None of those are a big problem in Rio, the real problem is corruption. Millions of dollars for building roads, bridges, funding the police force end up in a pockets of corrupt politicians. If Brazil tackles corruption and focused more on public infrastructure the country would be a better place. Also mafias rule the streets of Rio, they will kick you out of your own house if you don't pay them. Public works projects and calling the military to take care of crime could do the country good.

Can't really blame them most of the time.

Since they have to pay for water, energy and this kind of stuff, they turned the building into another slum, they started splitting the rooms with wood and selling them and would build more favelas around it.

Blame Brazil. They were the ones who paid money to be the host.

Well Brazil had horrible corruption in the first place so think about it, the Rio Olympics is coming soon but the committee didn't notice this until now so what's the purpose of massive sports driven companies, to make money, they don't really have time to pick s new country they do the planning several years earlier the committee didn't notice this until a year ago so that's why.

Yeah, why create jobs for construction and encourage tourism in this poor place. The last thing these poor people need is outside money being circulated into the economy.

@shut up already mate, stop.

And now Beijing is hosting them again in 2022. What will happen?

MichaelTheGamer 2.0 hope they are gonna reuse the facilities from 2008 instead of building new ones

Also for entertainment and learning

Thankfully for my country, the amount of athletes is enough to fill in the facilities (since they turned into a training area, but still usable for the Olympics or anything like that). Plus there's the current pandemic, so they've been using some of the rooms for Quarantine.

@@wizoneoncereveluv9668 The Philippines. One of the sports facilities would've still been in use currently if it weren't for the pandemic, but thankfully the "sports city" was made such that it could hold evacuees or patients if ever needed. Plus unlike most "local" sports facilities, the sports city that was made for the 2019 SEA Games is up to international standards, properly ventillated, air-conditioned, and maintained.

Events like these break a country into 2 or more parts ....i m sure one of them will rise and make a seperate nation

happens every time the international community shines a light on people with no money. all the people with money have to satisfy their guilt by becoming a cause-ist. cant go play sports in a poor nation w.o pretending to care a little to get rid of that guilt. just like Beijing 4 years ago...world cup...and all the others.

I wouldn't call it guilt, tourism is very important to that region, and retaining a good image in the eyes of the rest of the world promotes tourism

Yeah, in general

This is pretty common where tourism is a major industry. Here in Hawaii there was once a law that made sleeping on the streets illegal, many people saw this as pretty much making homeless people breaking the law just for being homeless, of course the law was later nulled after a few protests.

It's kind of like living in a city with an ivy league school. Don't mess with the rich people. Kill each other, but don't go up the hill.

at least some of the arenas will be transformed in schools

at least some of the arenas will be transformed in schools

at least some of the arenas will be transformed in schools

Because its suppose to be an international game and having the host city change internationally goes a long way to drive home that point. Most of the Olympic games were hosted in the US or Europe and a lot of people in other country are already resentful of that fact. Another solution would be to make it so people won't make such a damn big deal about the games (at least financially) but there is just too much profit to be made by the rich and powerful. There's also no international regulatory entity that can do anything about it either and certainly not one where profit isn't one of the primary motive.

That's understandable, however it will still be unfair as that location only will benefit from the Olympics. The Olympics is bigger than just an international sporting event, it attracts tourists (while where there's tourists money is generated). So for instance if there's a permanent location in a place such as Paris, only the French benefit from it. That therefore causes conflicts, weakens unity in the world and etc. With all of that said perhaps a remote area with no governing body directing it is a better idea.

mr mister I learnt about favelas in my Secondary School, and I was disgusted in how Brazil just tried to sweep the problem under the rug

It's a recurrent problem all over the world. It has taken quite a grim turn in Latin America, but it also happens in the developed north. I have been doing some research on the matter and the majority of the authors from all areas (sociology, politics, art, architecture and even economy) point out that the phenomenon have existed since a long time a go, because it's the physical manifestation of inequalitywithin the built environment, and inequality is a characteristic of societies. Even the nordic countries have inequality, but not in the same degree as Latin America or even the USA. Going back to the topic at hand. The authors I have been studying, point out that inequality and illegal settlements got out of "control" since the 1980's, under the Reaganomics and Thatcherism policies that imposed the neoliberal agenda and therefore increasing inequality.
