So Heller opposes repealing tax breaks for oil companies because such a move would "take away the oil companies’ incentive to explore for more reserves..."
So record profits don't provide enough of an incentive, eh Deano? Next time the good folks of rural Nevada fill the tanks of THEIR pickup trucks, they should ponder that they elected a guy who supports giving THEIR tax money to the oil companies who are enjoying record profits at THEIR expense.
Also - cabs won't reliably come to your house and the shuttle vans won't ever do that. If you need a ride to the airport for a flight (and you don't have a ride) your viable options are to either park at the airport or park at a casino and take a cab.
The taxis are way too busy longhauling tourists to take an honest fare. Those of us who use the McCarran tunnel see tons of cabs - those are almost always a longhaul.
