Yes, it does: I lived in Greenville, SC, in 1996, 150 miles away from Atlanta. You bet we got a significant tourism windfall. And going to the Olympics is extremely way cool, even if it was for one day-- the day AFTER the Centennial Park bombing....

In theory, communism is a great system: "from each according to his abilities, for each according to his needs." Unfortunately, the theory breaks down very quickly when you introduce human nature....
