Would you please describe the "democratic process" by which we had the
olympics inflicted on us in the first place; and would you also please
describe the "democratic process" which decided that the olympics
passengers are more important than the regular passengers? I don't seem
to recall a referendum on the matter, and indeed I don't even recall any
political party putting the latter proposition in its policies before an
election so that the voters could cast any judgment on it. Perhaps my
memory is faulty.
