John Kass, Chicago Tribune
We were told by politicians that the Olympics were great for Chicago and the city really needed the Olympics and anyone who didn’t like the Olympics was mean, stupid, short-sighted and hated Chicago. Happily, Chicago taxpayers lost the Olympics, and now the Brazilians are paying for it instead. I’m all for creating jobs. And 50,000 jobs are nothing to scoff at.
