The Olympics in Chicago

I think having the Olympics in Chicago would raise awareness of Chicago throughout the world, but I also think we can spend that money more wisely to help struggling communities in Chicago. I don't think the city is ready for such a world event, with the cost of CTA on the rise, and poverty levels still rampant in many neighborhoods. It seems that the reason why they want the World Olympics to be in Chicago only for commercial reasons.
