More than 600 people showed up for a town hall meeting Saturday with 20 state lawmakers to address Nevada’s budget crisis and the upcoming special session of the Legislature.

The meeting at the Grant Sawyer State Office Building in downtown Las Vegas filled three rooms and lasted nearly seven hours. More than 100 people shared their ideas about how the state could save money and what programs should or shouldn’t be cut.

Everybody better get ready to eat a huge adversity sandwich. Hyper-inflation seems the only way this country can get through what is coming. Along with large cuts to S.S and medicare. I'd rather my generation face the music, then force my children to lose the freedoms that this country was built on.

As usual the “Give me; I am entitled crowd” was shown to the public.

I still think you are right about inflation. They have to raise intrest rates after November and then Katie bar the door. Other countries will raise first and soak up our lenders.
