Could we if we wanted to? Yes, kind of. We could put ourselves in a position where we were capable of winning every gold. To do this, however, would take a lot of money because there are so many sports, some of which we don't even qualify for, that we would have to put together programs with coaches and facilities to train athletes for every sport. Then we would have to find people who wanted to do those events. We would have to look at it like Romania used to look at women's gymnastics. They had girls from a young age dedicate their lives to it. The government took complete care of them and their one job was to do well in the Olympics.
I doubt the public would be very willing to spend the kind of money a huge endeavor like this would cost.
