The big waste over Olympia

Berlin wants to host Olympics.

They cannot even build and open their running joke of a (already to small) airport.

The city is in deep debts and hangs on the coin-drip of other federal states.

But it wants to waste other's money for Olympia.

Said new airport now is allowed to be silently whispered about as "never to be opened". Serious. The misplanning simply is to monumental. It is rumoured it would be cheaper to tare it all down and build from scratch.

German quality. Interpreted in politician's competent management and Berlin's socialist daydreaming.

I hope they get the Olympics. So that afterwards they will need to stare for years and decades at the empty and abandoned arenas, contemplating about their collective folly to have allowed their politicians to move ahead instead of hanging them at the next telephone poles.

After the Berlin airport, Elb-Philharmonie and Stuttgart 21 i suggest we should probably try a small, wooden outhouse next, and see what happens

I'd heard of the Berlin Airport fiasco but surely there would be insufficient funding to create the new builds necessary to host an Olympics?
