There is no way to stop host nations from profiting from the Olympics because tourists will always flock there to watch the games in person. Certainly, governments should be allowed to make a few extra accommodations for the increased number of people in a concentrated area. The IOC should closely monitor the spending involved with these accommodations, insuring that no more is done than needed.
Nations should be restricted to the necessities when it comes to preparing for the Olympics. Since the globe cannot be rid of governments to solve the problem of their negative influence on the games, what is needed is better government. The IOC is a young organization compared to the Olympic games. While it has been a part of the problem recently, new reforms can be made to strengthen its power and control over the games. The IOC is needed to keep the spirit of the Olympics alive. The committee just needs time to mature into a solid form of government that can curb the influence of national governments and ensure that the Olympics remain true to the original Greek spirit.
