Duke, I do not follow much the topic, there are sectors that are against, but there is not a great controversy. From what I've read is quite austere budget and much of the infrastructure are already built. They probably think that eventually the economic benefits will outweigh the costs.
Where is Spain intending on getting the extra billions of dollars/euros needed to pay for an Olympic Games? I would have thought the Spanish government could have found a better use for any extra euros they may get their hands on , including paying down their debt.
Is the idea of hosting another Olympic Games even a popular idea in Spain?
