"Bidding on the Olympics has been justified for years by one big economic lie: investing in hosting Olympic Games will lead to long-term economic growth.

Hope Colorado doesn't try to go for the games again.

And the Winter Olympics is having trouble finding suitors too. But I think Colorado could host the winter games without building new facilities, most of the cost of the games. We have arenas for major league hockey, college, and minor league hockey. We have multiple areas for skiing and snowboarding.
Maybe just building a new luge/bobsled run.

Ooh yeah, pack snow up onto the dividers and along the edge of the highway and there you go! The Morrison police are good for the speed check that they show along the course.

"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther

The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill
