I feel bad

Chicago receives least amount of votes! No olympics in 2016.

I feel bad ...for the politicians and others who own the property in Chicago that they were planning on developing or selling after the city was awarded the 2016 olympics. What will they do with it now?

I would really feel bad if I believed it would have made the average citizens lives better.

Yep. I was thinking about how that would have been a shot right in their main artery for the construction industry.
