"Besides Nevada, the wealthiest state in the nation, doesn't want educated people - who will make beds and wash dishes in their casinos" and I could not agree more. Our children are the dumbest in the nation. A friend who got a teaching job here when we were offering bonus great pay blah blah is leaving Vegas this weekend to return to a teaching job back East. He said he was told take a pay cut or leave...the schooling in Vegas needs more than just the Lottery it needs a serious change in leadership! But hey we always have booze, drugs and more homeless than we can take care of...WOHOO VEGAS!!!

Reading stories like this really instills the conspiracy theory as fact. Since the government does not tie the price of fuel to inflation we see inflation at a deflated unrealistic 3%. Last month the gas price was $3.64 now $4.29 (unleaded) an increase of 15.15% in one month where does 3% come from....when last did anyone in Congress do grocery shopping, buy a gallon of milk or a loaf of bread! When last did the citizens of the US get a cost of living salary increase as they do in Europe/Australia and many other places in the world....I mean those that don't work for the governement of course they seem to do okay!! I hate to use the words but it is seriously time to "wake up America!"
