China is a BAD Choice

Sorry I used that word “choice” because in China that word isn’t used much. Picking China as host to the olympics was a bad choice. Now the best athletes in the world have to travel to an over polluted, over populated, information wasteland for olympic gold.
The air pollution is so bad that people have to wear masks as peddle their bikes. It’s no wonder that Chinese athletes do so well when they come to a western country to compete...they can finally breathe.
The chinese government has software that funnels all internet traffic and communication back to them for screening. Now the government has TOLD all hotels that they have to install this special software in their internet systems before the games. Get this, the hotels have to buy the software from the government and pay to have government installers come out and put the stuff in. All TV, Radio, and Newspaper media is also monitored extremely close as well. If the Chinese government hears or sees ANYTHING they don’t condone, that media outlet will be booted out of the country. So you can bet that NBC and all the others will be playing it pretty close to the vest, so to speak.
This is what we have to put up with from having the Olympics in China. Canada is hosting the Olympics in 2010 and you wouldn’t believe what going on in Vancouver. Trade Unions that are building the site are raping the government for more money!! Real Estate developers are doing the same thing when it comes to housing. Prices on just about everything have skyrocketed in the Vancouver area all because of the upcoming Olympics.
To end off, I just feel sorry for the athletes because they are the ones that are being used as pawns in this whole thing. The Olympics have turned into a money grabbing, political extravaganza!! What’s next a Taliban hosted Olympics?
Thanks for the read

If you’re chinese and reading this and take offence to it, you’re probably in in China. Be thankful that you can read someone else’s opinion. We call this...freedom.
