-Might go well with your Mao watch. Just sayin’ ;P

I actually hate A&E stuff usually. Too much useless fluff out there.

However, potential recession notwithstanding, I’m tired of whiny Nevadans who want services and won’t pay for them. I’m tired of businesses coming here to make money off our people but not putting back into the coffers to help provide for those people.

And note, I wrote “Republican dolts such as Jim Gibbons.” I’m no party-line-toter. Most so-called “liberals” can suck it too. 😉

Not ALL Republicans are dolts, and, if you dig a little bit deeper, you may find that liberals are just as disappointing. Diversification of taxes is not the issue, rather one should investigate allotment of revenue funds. Although, I am extremely impressed by your knowledge of current affairs; I had you pegged for an A & E junkie. Since when did you start caring about the news?

On the flipside, yeah, in Vegas, we’d find cheaper labor in about a week. But don’t ruin my apocalyptic fantasies. Hey, at least I didn’t even mention the fact that because of Republican dolts such as Jim Gibbons, we’d lose all our tax revenue, as well, since they can’t seem to vote for taxation diversification in Nevada.

And not everyone in the aforementioned industries is associated with a union. Being that union membership has declined drastically in the past decade and continues to do so, and with the “right to work” statutes as state law, there will always be someone willing to work for lower pay.

I do believe you are going into overdrive on this one, however, the IHT citation was enough to have me forget the melodramatic, hyperbolic scenario and admire your choice of sources.
