Do u people think that there is a blatant waste of money in organizing the 2010

World Cup in South Africa? They are building a couple of new stadiums only to host the event.

But when the World Cup is over, most of these stadiums will be empty as people are not really mad over football in South Africa.

So I find this a big waste of money. This money could have been used to better purpose like the fight against AIDS which is ravaging South Africa and th African continent as a whole.

Am I wrong in my opinion? Anyone has any argument as to why should South Africa host the World Cup after all and spend so much money on building new stadiums?

I think the world cup is a waste of money to start with, if we would spend half the money on starving people, that we spend on sports, there wouldn't be any starving people
