The next president could order the Energy Department to withdraw its application to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
I have two comments: First, it is not the job of the Las Vegas Sun to start a recall. The Sun's job is to keep us informed and offer its opinions. From there it is our job as readers to respond in the way we believe appropriate, including starting a recall movement if we wish. Second, why do Nevadans believe it is the responsibility of tourists, via the gaming tax, to fund our schools? We should be funding our own needs, including education. The Legislature should require that banks, Big Box stores and the mining industry step up and pay their fair share. Also, a slight increase in our property taxes would not kill us. If we could come to the realization that gaming taxes should simply augment our state treasury, and that we as residents and businesses have the civic obligation to fund services for our children, senior citizens, needy families and, yes, our jail and prison inmates, we would be a much better state.
I know -- let's give the governor a slush fund! And the attorney general. And the secretary of state and treasurer. Oh, and the public administrator needs one. Who else? Let's see, there is the lieutenant governor, and all the legislators and judges. Just so we don't forget anyone, we need to put this into law: Slush funds for all elected officials. Whooopeee!
