Penny Wise


$125 Million ++ for security for 2010.

Lovely.

And this could buy how many classrooms, teachers, books, day care spaces, MIRs, treatment beds, and on into the misplaced night....

David, we all knew that the security costs would skyrocket; we all knew that Campbell & Co. were fibbing about security costs; we know Harpo & Co. were fibbing likewise; we know that VANOC have mislead the public on security costs - and you are surprised.

I was never for or against the Olympics (which I think is a major 'elite' trough feeding event) but the 2011 financial hangover may cure any hunger for more world class events.

I say let everyone in BC who bought Olympic licence plates, pay any additional taxes needed or if there is profit, share the profit ........ not!

The Olympics is a scam; has been treated as a scam and the taxpayer is the loser for it.
