Qatar World Cup Bid

Pretty much modern day slavery.  On top of bidding scandal, this is much worse.  Thousands of workers dying in unimaginable conditions.  

Hope the FIFA committee reconsiders their bid.  USA came in 2nd in the voting for 2022.

Qatar's bid always seemed sketchy. Extremely hot place in the summer and no real area for tourists to stay. Now with this, it can't stand. 

USA has sites already built. In fact, they can use the small soccer specific stadiums for some of the non-popular matchups.

Pretty good if you have 13m

And even if you dont like soccer

John Oliver always nails it. Behind Stephen Colbert, he's my favorite.

I with snatching the bid but it would have to go to someone like the US that can ramp up preparations really quick.
