Las Vegas Mayor responding to Nevada Governor about 30 day shutdown of non-essential businesses:

“I know we, and they, cannot survive any total shutdown of the economy for any length of time beyond the immediate week or two,” she said, pointing to the hospitality industry and mom-and-pop shops in particular. “Thus, my full efforts will be focused on keeping as many of our people as possible employed and asking the governor to shorten the projected shutdown.”

Cannot survive.
Las Vegas, as an entity...as a city of 2.5 million...will dry up and blow away in the desert winds without tourism.

““Thus, my full efforts will be focused on keeping as many of our people as possible employed and asking the governor to shorten the projected shutdown.””

The County Commissioner of Galveston (Texas) pretty much said the same...which is EXACTLY why Trump will be forced into a HARD LOCKDOWN of the country, probably before the weekend is over.
