Just an aver joe,
Good job in regards to homer..unfortunately these "types", are the very reason the gov is having problems. This gov of ours, just can't afford to support all these "takers" and "illegals" any longer, so they will just stick it to the rest of us that actually DO work for a living.

Well, the town is not over, but what used to be Vegas is over..people are still coming, but not as many as before. Years ago, when the economy was bad, you could still get a deal to Vegas, spend a couple of days..play, drink, enjoy the sun,it was a cheap get away. Not no more!!! This town has catered to the high rollers for way too long, now those high rollers can go to many other venues, and the big shoppers, lol....the everyday visitor, the consistant visitor..they were the ones that made this town, and they were the ones that were pushed aside and treated like crap..now, what is left? A lot of empty buildings, a lot of hoyty toyty casinos...and no one inside..again, it is sad..but thats what happens when you forget the little guy.

Stevem is right..we lived in Vegas 98'-04' have been back just once since then, OMG....what a total mess...we won't be back..in fact, Vegas actaully reminds me of LA, now...looks like the Hispanics have taken over, that town, too.While I do not have anything against Hispanics, per say..but, lets put it this way, if I wanted to see Mexico, I would visit Mexico..this is sooo sad...

Agree with you totally eviron...we really miss what Vegas used to be..its really sad what the big shots have done. Back to the basics..and it would turn around, but then what the h#*% would they do with all those buildings??? Too, bad they just coulden't emplode those...like they did all of the nostalgic casinos of the past..they were the best!!! And yes, then they could well afford to loosen their slots, offer comps, ect...it would be wonderful, woulden't it???

I gotta tell you...I am so glad we moved out of Vegas a few yrs ago. When we left it was obvious that the problems with the hispanics were going to be so big that it would ruin that wonderful town. I read the RJ & Sun everyday, and its just so sad. I just can't believe what is happening there!!
