It will help a lot with the economy.
This can be true however the cost of building facilities etc. for the Olympics is huge and may not help the economy at all. It all depends on how these Olympic facilities are put to use after the Games - The Olympic Legacy.
Countries want to host the Olympic Games because it improves their transportation systems, their employment rates, their economic security, and much more.
It also helps tout the benefits of the host city, raising the public's interest in future tourism. That future revenue would be generated in travel costs, hotel accommodations, restaurant patronage, taxi fares, and tourist attractions other than the venues themselves.
Think about it. The Olympics is a monumental international project, and some entity, the International Olympic Committee, has to make decisions about where the events will be held. If the decisions are not made by a single entity, then how will the decisions be made? The committee has to consider the ability of the applying nations to provide proper venues for the games, including both technical parameters for the fields, tracks and pools, and to provide adequate seating for audiences. There must be adequate housing and food services for athletes. This is just the tip of the iceberg.
