So true tommyguns, they spent more money on hydroponic products and electricity then this bust is worth in pot. Having to pay for these folks while their incarcerated will end up costing us taxpayer's more than this bust is truly worth if Marijuana were legalized and taxed. In the end, this bust will cost us more than it was worth making...SICK..

Note to editor:
The Headline here states that the tax rate won't keep Wynn out of Pennsylvania. The first paragraph state's that Wynn says the tax rates are keeping him from setting up shop. Then, the third paragraph talks about his managerial involvement--Is this not confusing??

Once again a (R) is in the news for something he says. Once again, there's a headline based on a pledge, nothing has been done or legislated that benefit's the people in any way, shape or form and it's a story??

Take another toke their Mr. Comfort, is Mr. Steele in the room with you? If that's the case then you guys better get a bigger bag to make this "pipe dream" come true. Gaining one seat in the Senate only gives the GOP more rope to hang themselves with, it does not signify a shift to the right across the Nation or in this State by any means. You (R)'s wanna make some headway? How bout using your vote and legislative skills to get something done in a bi-partisan manner? American's are sick and tired of the Party of "NO!" especially when instead of trying to work with Democrats for a compromise, they try to block all progressive legislation without offering a single alternative or plan that changes the status quo.

Larry, Moe and Curly did "What?" How ingeniuos of this group of Republicans to agree to decided to all run on a platform that's against a bill over 80% of populist America wants--Brilliant!! Maybe they'll make it a point to have George W. come to NV and stump for'em!! Sorry folks, but the right wing's control of Media negativity projected toward's Harry Reid isn't enough to stop him from being re-elected. There's no Democrat that will beat him in the primary and the Republican Party of "NO" will not regain power in any branch of Gov't for generations to come based on their inability to realize that their platform does not serve any constituency that other than Corporate hierarchy..

Note to all:
So how many articles concerning Gibbon's and what he's done wrong as a person, who he lashes out against, what bill or fellow Legislator plan he's against must we endure!! I've yet to see one single article praising this man or a piece of Legislation that he's responsible for that does any good for anyone. I don't think it's the paper's fault, it's just the blatant nature of this man's inability to Govern, Period.

This is the comment section, not your own personal peanut gallery to bash union's based on cluelessness. Ceasar's or anyone else for that matter, can hire who they wish. This is a right to work state, is it not? Employer's consistently choose Union Contractor's because we are the best at getting the job done, right, the first time. Just because the SCAB's don't pay unemployment benefit's to the State for their worker's doesn't mean their better off doing the job. Jose A and Jose B don't spend their money here if you didn't happen to notice, but every nickel I earn here supports the local economy, something your rhetoric does not.

The Tarp money hasn't been fully allocated, it's not directed to the State right from the White House. When I say fully allocated, I mean it's tied up in the General Fund thanks to some clown named Gibbons, whose lack of governance and inability to make decisions has the monies just sitting there doing squat. Have patience--Obama's plan has been working, we're digging out of an eight year black hole, have patience....

Apparently I was wrong, her uselessness does not have any bounds! Maybe she'll drink enough free wine to do that porn-shoot we've all been waiting for!!--lol

Your assumption's about what went wrong with this jobsite are as per your usual, totally wrong and a misrepresentation of what happened based on your own insignificant understanding of how the construction industry works. Next time, save yourself the self inflicted embarassment from other's by keeping the peanut gallery commentary to yourself, folks just aren't interested in seeing your argument's get obliterated everytime you think you know something and decide to type. If your point had any merit then the other new project's listed in this article that Fontainbleau will be competing with should all be in the same boat. But, they're not, and guess what--They were all built union too! Gee, Imagine that!! It was all about the financing and upper management incompetence on this one. They couldn't make any decision's out there starting with the building's design--they fired the first Architectural firm and the job became a design and build right from the get go. The contractor's out there did the job's they were given and they will receive their money, trust me.

Gibbons is a lame/dead duck. The legislature will quash this ridiculous attempt to "save face" with the right wing quicker than the time it will take for him to give his concession after the polls open in the next election.
