No more displacement of the poor and homeless...you know, the "unattractive" people in the area meant for Olympic development...no more sticking the taxpayers with the tab when all is said and done and the hoopla dies down. No more decisions being made by people who are not even citizens of the host country!!!!! Enough!

It is no Place for the Graft and Theft that would come to mark the Olympics event. The Slums will have to wait for the City to do the right thing..They are trying to host the Olympics to have a reason to knock down the failed public housing. Valerie Jarrett will make a cool fortune. It is all too much politics. Tokyo deserves the honor or Rio. NOT CHICAGO

The olympics will cost tax payers all over the USA more debt to pay off in the future. This is besides the fact that the residents of Chicago have no say in this it will cause dispair for many who will not bennefit from having the olympics here in the USA. I would rather see Brazil have there moment to take part in the Olympics just b/c this has never happened in South America.

He is alarmingly & disturbingly disconnected from his city's dying pulse. We're on the verge of becoming like NYC in the 70's, & the Olympics will push us over that brink. Hosting the Olympics is a lovely idea that Chicagoans would gladly welcome, if not for rampant abuse & mismanagement that plague our city in biblical proportions. We'll be glad to party when Daley leaves office.

Chicago is in severe debt, and crucial services are being cut. There's a dire need for affordable housing, money for schools, crime, mental health. Olympic plans are to build on vitally important public parks and a migratory bird sanctuary- to build indoor stadiums and buildings. Those bldgs will stay...the parks and open space and nature will be lost forever. This city is too CORRUPT and BROKE. VOTE NO!!

Who will pay for the infrastructure improvements? Tax payers throughout Illinois will. The State of Illinois is broke. The governor demands tax increases to support the day-to-day operation of the state. I strongly oppose to the bid to host the 2016 Summer Olympics in Chicago.

No rational person would host the Olympics in a city so ill suited. Chicago has tremendous problems to overcome without having to contend with the Olympics, which will surely drain their few remaining economic resources. Politicians do no care about the well being of their citizens, but about repaying favors. No one in political office in favor of this move should be reelected as it demonstrates their true lack of concern with the people they profess to serve.

The Olympics is the wrong choice for Chicago at this time. There are many needs in the city, such as proper housing for low income families and keeping taxes in check while everyone gets through this tough economic time. I was deeply saddened by the death of the 16 yr old student this week. Chicago needs much healing and attention, but not with the Olympics. It's pure vanity for those pushing it!!

I have never experienced a city more incapable of managing a budget than Chicago. Valuing machine politics over fiscal responsibility will always produce this result.

With Daley and his buds in power, the Olympics would either bankrupt Chicago or result in a major (double digit) tax increase on residents. They are already overtaxed to begin with. Shame.

You Chicagoans all know this. Speak out.

How can Chicago host a prestious event with the obscene crime rate? Obama needs to campaign for dismantling Chicago gangs, rather than trying to get MORE people killed !

Green [Signature #1090] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6263209?utm_medium=rss The location of all game venues hasn't really been distributed in a fair and equal manner; in short the venues are located almost entirely in the black community of Chicago. All the disturbance and upheaval of residents lives is in the black sections of town. Not one white neighborhood in the city will be disturbed; no white bus & train routes are affected, only black transit and traffic routes. This type of thing is totally unfair and improper! Mr. L. D.

Giving the economy, tax dollars would be better spent on education, infrastructure, and public housing especially now that many people's homes are being foreclosed on, not deficit spending to promote gentrification and development that will displace many. The short term benefits for local hotels and restaurants is not worth the est. billions that will be spent on temporary prestige while the larger population pays for eviction.

Both Daley Administrations have cost Chicago thousands of lost jobs that paid a living wage, primarily, due to high corporate taxes as well as the cost of doing business in this city. Anytime the Mayor speaks of "job-creation" in this city, they're minimum-wage jobs! "All hail Richard the Second!"

No, no, no Chicago!

Rio! Si, si, si!

Do not embarass yourselves by awarding what will be a mismanaged disaster to Chicago (nothing here is ever done well, on time or on budget due to public corruption). Please award the games to Rio.
