Randian freak! And, "open up but it's not my job to figure out how!"
Even the casino owners are saying "Yeah mayor.....no!"

Amazing how little self-awareness & social conscience these people demonstrate.

Glad to hear casinos are refusing to open, but will that leave their workers with no UC funds? .

...to become liberal Dems. We need a two-party system in this country, with a sane conservative party, to make democracy work. But maybe we can get a sort of coalition of liberals/sane conservatives, an American version of the Whig/Tory coalition in 1688, to save the country from despotism...

Sadly, we've learned that many leaders in this country are not capable to deal with this pandemic.

Fortunately our governor is s Dem who understands that nobody wants to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with people from who knows where at a crap table, or roulette table or blackjack table right now.

We're in for a long haul with this virus until there's a vaccine.

Was in China PRIOR to social distancing measures in that country. That's not after 30-45 days of people being home. The people in Las Vegas have been at home for the past month plus and almost assuredly don't have covid-19. That is the difference.
