What an Olympic Mess

Just a few weeks remain until the Rio Olympics.

But seriously........

Can they successfully pull these off with all that Brazil has faced and/or is facing?

- government turmoil/corruption, including impeachment proceedings on their President

- construction scandals, delays and cost overruns

- nasty polluted water

- Zika (and other mosquito-borne illness)

- security concerns :: street gangs, crime, terrorism

- economic meltdown :: recession, unemployment

- hospitals shuttered

- education funding cut

- crumbling infrastructure

Until recently, ticket sales have even been lagging way behind forecast.

Wow, this will be a challenge for a country that is very challenged right now.

Out for now.......
