That Vegas mayor interview was weird, but obviously the city can’t survive keeping casinos closed indefinitely.

I think the real question is even if she opens up is anyone going to show up and gamble?

I’ve had a ton of fun every time I went to Vegas and I’d love to irresponsibly ditch my parenting obligations and go again some time soon. But not, like, with a deadly pandemic raging.

In general the idea that politicians can use smoke & mirrors to revive the leisure and hospitality sectors of the economy is driving way too much of contemporary politics.

You need to address the virus! And until you do, businesses need super-cheap loans to sit right.
