Nevada perhaps more than any state could be devastated economically simple because without the gambling revenue they have very little else.

Florida especially the area around Orlando is going to be hammered with the theme parks closed and the issue for both areas is the same. Do you really want thousands of people that have shown no symptoms flying in without a vaccine?

BUT something much more sinister is looming. Most states depend on steady tax revenue to support pensions and Washington has sent a signal that don't expect help from us.

McConnell says he favors allowing states to declare bankruptcy

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Wednesday he favors allowing states struggling with high public employee pension costs amid the burdens of the pandemic response to declare bankruptcy rather than giving them a federal bailout.

“I would certainly be in favor of allowing states to use the bankruptcy route,” he said Wednesday in a response to a question on the syndicated Hugh Hewitt radio show. “It’s saved some cities, and there’s no good reason for it not to be available.”

Almost seems like it might not be the most stable plan to build an entire metro area entirely around gambling and theme parks.

In the old Sim City game from 30 years ago if you planned your city like that it never ended well.

We all knew it was coming.

The federal government is saying it is “up to the governors” when to lift stay-at-home orders, while simultaneously trying to smoke out the citizens of these states with threats.

If McConnell is so concerned about debt and the deficit, why didn’t he raise a fuss when Donald Trump cut the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% for virtually no reason other than to line the pockets of CEO’s and give a false impression of “the best economy ever”, thus causing the deficit to increase at twice the rate during the Obama years?

Fiscal conservatives don’t exist at the federal level anymore. They just talk about big debt numbers when it serves their purpose to scare people.

@LSCII Harvard is going to return that aid money (which they never should have taken in the first place IMO, not with a multi billion dollar endowment fund):

Harvard won't accept $9M in coronavirus relief

Princeton & Stanford turned the money down.

 

[Troublesome 85]

People don’t even live in Vegas and have opinions on what we should do. Lmao

like it was mentioned most of our revenue is from casinos. Dispensaries bring in a lot too. Most people here want everything reopened. From coworkers to customers.

doesn’t even look that much different out here really. People still out doing stuff.

I also think that was a stupid question to ask the mayor. I as a citizen of this city would not want my mayor gambling in a casino.

Interested to see where the dices will fall, pushing for opening the economy too soon could backfire into the GOP'S face.

Trump and McConnell have been hit hard with the Covid. They are not controlling most of the senators.

This display is shameful. Making the experts walk back factual statements because you don't like them is f***ing ridiculous.

The kicker is the head of the CDC says he was quoted correctly in the story.

We had a great conversation about "testing". Even when he tries to pretend he can't help but be the petty small little shit he is.
