Are major international summits worth the disruption for locals?

This week on Confessions, Taylor finds himself facing a difficult decision after finally landing a job. His parents have told him they want 30% of his salary or he'll be kicked out of the house. On top of that, they won't help with transport costs and, according to Taylor, they treat him badly. So what should he do? Stay at home and pay up, or use his salary to rent a place with friends and start fresh? Stacey and J Sbu opened the lines and asked listeners to weigh in on this complicated family and financial dilemma.

Stacey and J Sbu asked whether the long term benefits of hosting major international summits outweigh the short term inconvenience experienced by locals. Listen to the debate and decide for yourself.
