Would be nice if the city and Clark County and NV made some efforts, even just symbolic, to save a few of the taxpayers' bucks.

Google Nevada government budget cuts.

Sisolak has announced them earlier in the month.

Perhaps they can just ask the government to print a little more money.

The people shouldn't have to pay for a damn thing since it's not our fault.
I'm glad I stopped filing taxes a few years ago, that's MY money.
I'm done with this nonsense system.

If we disagree with something, it's our DUTY to disobey and refuse to bow down.
We're going to face increased taxes of all kinds here in Las Vegas, just wait for it.
If your blood isn't boiling, check for a pulse.

This is just the beginning...

McCarran, other Nevada airports to receive $231M in relief funds

WASHINGTON — Nevada airports will receive $231 million from an aid package passed by Congress to battle the impact of the coronavirus outbreak, Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao said Tuesday.

Overall, Congress and the White House negotiated a $2.2 trillion package that included $10 billion in emergency resources to help continue operations and save workers’ jobs during the pandemic.

In Nevada, 30 airports will receive some funding from the relief package.

The most will go to McCarran International Airport, which will get $195 million for operations.

“Getting our airport back at full capacity will be vital to boosting Southern Nevada’s tourism economy,” said Rep. Dina Titus, D-Nev.

“Las Vegas will be ready to welcome visitors when we can do so safely,” Titus said.

The Reno Tahoe airport will get $30 million, while smaller airports will get distributions in the thousands, including Henderson Executive, $157,000, Mesquite, $30,000, and $157,000 for North Las Vegas.

Yeah I think there will only be a few surviving airlines after all this is done. There are plenty of people who do not want to get on a plane with close contact with a bunch of strangers..Domestic or International

Delta, Alaska, and Spirit have blocked booking of all middle seats to promote social distancing. Others are taking a similar measures. While it is necessary to make folks feel more comfortable, it's not a long term solution as a way back to profitability.
