Bring back the mob.
Exactly. Vegas was cheap when it existed mainly to launder money for organized crime.
“Bring back the mob.”
Oddly I agree. The mobs model was gambling period. Hotels and food were close to cost. They wanted to bring people in to gamble, drink and see the shows. It worked. When legitimate business took over Las Vegas, they ruined it.
I am not a gambler with the exception of a little low stakes blackjack. My wife loved the slots and sometimes won. We could go to Vegas and have a good time at a reasonable cost. That Vegas is no more. I do not go to Vegas anymore.
Funny story about Vegas Slots. My wife from Mexico who speaks perfect English hit a 1000 dollar plus pay off. That was in the day before the totally electronic machines. The machine did not have enough coins in it to pay off the total. She came running to my blackjack table and said, “La penche machina no mi paga!” (The F-—ing machine did not pay me) I laughed and said go back to the machine and an employee will come by and pay you. I miss the old Las Vegas.
Yep. Since the Democrats took over from the mob, they are screwing the public as they always do...
