Unfortunately, human rights for citizens of the host countries for the Olympics are sometimes disregarded.
"...the degradation of human rights in Olympic host cities..." (Source C)
- The host cities and countries are not evaluated properly; China who has violated human rights frequently was chosen
- China and other countries have relocated millions of civilians to make room for temporary Olympic villages and other infrastructure but they haven't adequately cared for those who they relocated
"...water being diverted from local residents and farmers..."(Source A)
- Egregiously, even water that is necessary to live was taken away from those who need it with no repercussions for those actions by the IOC
- By taking away the right to water to survive, China is violating many human rights, however, nothing will be done against them since they are a country that many rely on and because the IOC doesn't have the power or influence to prevent something like this from happening

Another problem that arises from the Olympics is the economic cost to hold the competition.
"...the balance sheet, which is overwhelmingly negative." (Source B)
- The excessive cost of the Olympics means that long after the events are gone, the countries and cities will still face the economic issues such as Greece going into a depression after hosting the costly competition
- the costs required for the Olympics are nothing to scoff at because of the excessive amount of money required for the entire organization of the event such as security, transportation, and advertisement that will all increase the bill at the end
"...little though given to the needs of the taxpayers who ultimately foot the bill." (Source C)
- the amount of money and funds needed to fund the Olympics for only 17 days is in the billions, and it is unfortunately taxpayers who have to pay for it
- normal citizens of the host cities have to bear the consequences of the billions required with increased tax and economic hardships placed on them

A key issue with the Olympics is the impact that the event has on the environment.
"Beijing is largely relying on... a process that... can lead to greater carbon emissions." (Source A)
- One of the key points of the Beijing Olympics was that it was supposed to be very ecologically friendly, but they completely disregarded this and are worsening the climate with massive amounts of CO2
- Not just in China, but other countries hold events that their climates are not suited for that require the hosts to do damage against the environment to have the events
"To have games in a site or region without snow is unsustainable." Source (A)
- Sustainability and stabilization of the environment is key for healing the world from the massive amounts of climate change that humans have caused but China is holding events that their environment cannot support naturally
- By holding events that their climate cannot support naturally the impact on the climate will be horrible and it was all so the CCP could have some place in the news and maybe obtain some prestige from holding the Olympics

Although host countries for the Olympics can garner prestige and renown, host countries can cause environmental issues and economic issues that far outweigh the potential prestige that they could gain.
The Olympics cause severe issues that have deep impacts such as environmental damage, economic hardship, and sometimes even cause countries to violate human rights.
