Gold for the poor .... Olympics 2012

As i sit in aw at many of the talented athletes I have to say at what price did that come. Many families sacrificing time and money. Some from countries which are very poor. The sacrifice for the mom now working two jobs for the training to see her son or daughter now in the Olympics game. Then lets hit the tax payer you and me, our families and parents many of us watch every penny that we spend, many have no pennies to spend we wait for that pay check to come to buy food. Such is the life for many pensioner. So when Olympics 2012 is done who will help make sure that the normal person does not have to go without, even more, the price of gold comes at a price. Let's hope for many there is a balance and not just those receiving Gold on a platform, benefit from Olympics 2012 and the many other Olympics games to come. Please have a cup of tea with me today.
