The government firstly underbudgeted the Olympics and it has cost much more than the original numbers first suggested it would. In consequence to this, the government has implemented the HST tax which will cause the prices on almost all daily essentials to rise dramatically. The government has also cut many jobs to be able to afford the Olympics, the most obvious being in health care. Cuts have already been made, and many more are expected to follow. As much as can be said about the Olympics being a great thing that unites a country, at what cost is it coming at? The uniting of Canada comes at the cost of British Columbia alone, one that is not affordable during this economic recession.
The Olympics are Very expensive. It costs billions of dollars to host the Olympics which only last two weeks in the host nation. A lot of countries have gone into major debt hosting the Olympics. The Summer Olympics should have a permanent home in Greece, and the Winter Olympics should have a permanent home in Sweden or Switzerland. The Olympics cost too much money. The expense is far too much when there is so much poverty in the world.

Les athletes that compete in the olympics means less medals earned for the country or continent.

There can be bad consequences if you cheat in youth olympics. You can be barred from entering in future olympic events. You can also be barred from entering any other event.
Gebreselassie an Ethiopian marathon runner (World record holder) has refused to run the Marathon at the Beijing Olympics due to bad air quality but will run the 10,000 meters.
It wasnt bad but the opening ceremony was more exciting than the closing ceremony.
I think England had that skier, who did bad, but held his own!!
I believe that the only bad effects of the Olympics are an increase in amounts of litter due to any packaging from food served at the events, as well as increased pollution because of the fossil fuels used to transport people to and from the stadim, and their homes. it is also bad for animals who will have to leave their habitats and lots of trees will be cut down so there is room for the stadium
