Whither Las Vegas and Atlantic City? — 5 Comments

  1. They have just approved a big new casino for Prince Georges County, MD, which is the less elite eastern side of the DC beltway area. What a waste.

    I hope Harry Reid loses votes from the Las Vegas failure.

  2.

Call this short history of American that we have had no Major cites fade into nothing but it happens to all countries given enough time.

    But it seems every generation to some degree or another assumes the way things are, are the way they have always been. I think its why so many people don’t really get Climate and that climate change is the most nature thing in the world and no change which seems to be case for keeping dying cities or locking the climate into its current state is very unnatural state of being.

  3. The difference is that Detroit still has fertile land and an excellent irrigation system that is already attracting some interest in whole blocks of easily-cleared derelict houses. What does Las Vegas have in terms of natural resources?

  4. MissJean Says: ….What does Las Vegas have in terms of natural resources?

    Try a low tax structure that attracts fugitive retirees from the snow/rust belt and the Democratic Peoples Republic of California, especially small businesses that can’t afford to operate in the “Peoples Paradise” any longer. We’re seeing a huge growth in these businesses moving.

    Las Vegas will be fine, thank you…. Atlantic City, not so much
