Does anyone think that the Olympic will further drive up the cost of living? I'm thinking along the line of increased foreign investment buying up all the land causing prices to artificially inflate. People who are in borderline poverty will become poor and be displaced by influx of richer people. Overall effect will still be net positive but at the expense of the under-priviledged.
