You know, Americans like for people to think that were pure as the driven snow - but were not. At least in the Silver State, they need beer, whiskey, water, and women....I disagree, if you have beer you don't need water.

She washed for them because she looked like harry and could not make any money. And the ladies make fun of harry’s little thing and he is still pissed about it.

"Some small brothels, with just a few girls, pay a quarterly fee of $5,000 (£3,100). Bigger houses can pay up to $37,000 (£23,000) per quarter."At what point does the State officially become a pimp?

Nevadas state-regulated brothels uphold a vital institution in the American Wests most remote state, finds Rachel Ray. "But it ain't a party until you drop the milk container on the floor," she said.

“Brothel fees vary from county to county and on the size of the operation. Some small brothels, with just a few girls, pay a quarterly fee of $5,000.”
They’re getting screwed.

Many of the girls that work at the brothels come from out of state... stay for a couple of weeks... then return home.

The real reason Reid came out against brothels is because of my book HARRY: Money Mob and Influence, which shows that Reid was taking money from pimp Joe Conforte at the Mustang Ranch in the early years. Harry’s best friend, Jay Brown, is a lawyer to many of the titty bars in town. I have a video up here:

Unfortunately, few seem to care.

US Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, a Nevada native whose mother took in washing from whorehouses during his youth to support her family,

That answers a lot of questions about Harry Reid for me.
Mom should have been more careful around those sheets.

***Nevada is the only US state with legalised prostitution,****
Back about 110 years ago there were these legal houses all over the US.
A few miles from me is an old hotel that used to be one and in Tulsa OK, at Archer & Greenwood was more than just the colored Wall Street!
And just what do you think GUNSMOKE’s Miss Kitty was, just a bar maid?

Lawyers or whores: neither came first, they’re both the same. They screw you.

Harry Reid reminds me of the Nevada Senator in the “Godfather”. You know the one who strangled the hooker and becomes indebted to the Corleones after Tom Hagen covered it up for him.

I strenuously object to the slandering of prostitutes by comparing them with Lawyers.

You know the one who strangled the hooker and becomes indebted to the Corleones Did he really strangle her, or was she murdered by Corleone's guys, and then he was drugged, so that they convinced him that he did kill her?

That is redundant, you have repeated yourself.

If they unionize and the union contributes to Dingy Harry's campaign ....
The International Sisterhood of Brothel Workers, AFL/CIO could be a major force in Nevada politics.
