The hotel is kinda raunchy and has thin walls, but it sure is fun ! A younger crowd generally.

Just not by myself on the bar. That's pathetic. It means the gamblers aren't really enjoying themselves: they need to hire underemployed women to make the situation appear to be fun.

It also means those women have been reduced to objects of entertainment by strange, un-involved men.

Find a person to dance WITH, not for the crowd to be distracted by as they lose their money.

Who are you to decide that they have been reduced..... to anything? I mean it wouldn't be my profession of choice but honestly why are you making the statement that they couldn't possibly have made the choice to do what they are doing? I don't really care for that whole industry but why do we constantly come to the conclusion that women cannot make up their own minds about what they do?

Demand is higher then expected in Las Vegas so both Caesar's and MGM are bringing additional casinos online sooner then they expected.

If the house weren't winning, it would close.

So, these people already think they can "beat the odds." They are "the exception."

Masks need to be required. Other than that, I don’t have a problem with this.

Nevada has done a lot of work to bend our curve. We need masks to keep it that way.

Come to Las Vegas and not only will you gamble with your future retirement savings, but with your life as well. So who knows! You may not need a retirement fund!
