If I had my druthers, I’d gladly welcome back those mob times. Because they went after the casinos, and not the average working class people here in Las Vegas.
They seem a helluva better alternative than this over twelve year run of predatory Tea/Republican Governors we have experienced in Nevada, who do the exact opposite. They take out all the ills of society out on us, and not the so called “job creators.” Yeah. “Job creators.” Sure. Right. What a stupid phrase that has turned out to be. Never worked before and still don’t work now..
Hell, a zombie apocalypse would look better than another year of Governor Sandoval cutting education more and more and using that money not to balance a budget, but give it as tax breaks to gaming and mining corporate interests.
The new mob is Jones Vargas. Because Governor Sandoval clearly signals he STILL works for them, not Nevada.
But then again, some things never change. Look at the new mob. Same as the old mob. Same results. The only thing that’s different now is they are street legal, authorized in writing to slowly strangle us all to death, and sponge every nickle they can out of our pockets. But at the same time, point fingers at us and blame us for letting them do it.
Corporations aren’t people. In Nevada, they’re the new mob. And the politicians in power right now believe they MUST be fed continuously. All at the expense of us.
