This is another hit peice from the Democrat stronghold of Nevada called Las Vegas. Another of Harry Reid’s henchmen.
Mining in Nevada produced the highest value of all exports in the past year—AGAIN....mostly gold, but other minerals, also. FAR exceeds gambling & tourism in revenue.
Mining jobs are well paid and they are working 7 days a week.
Mining cannot just ‘move to Texas’. They CAN, however, shut down & go dormant, poducing nothing until wiser minds prevail. Those mineral deposits cannot ‘move to Texas’. either.
Tonopah is re-opening old mines & starting up new ones. JObs are available, but housing isn’t. If you want to try there for work you are better off with a self-contained RV vehicle.
Yerington is opening a new copper mine, which also has moly deposits.
The Dems in Clark county have also worked with Dirty Harry to steal the water & the water rights from millions of acres of Eastern & Northern Nevada. Such actions will bankrupt ranchers & create another dust bowl.
Don’t think it matters to you? Most of that alfalfa hay they grow is fed to dairy cattle in 5 states. When you are giving your kids cold cereal with water on it, remember “I told you so”.!!!!!
Limits make the state keep spending under control. The worst thing that has happened to Ohio in the past is a strong industrial base that provided a strong revenue strean to the state.
The state did not have any limits on the amount that they could tax or spend so spending ballooned to meet the income stream and then taxes grew some more. The big mistake is that the state set up long term spending or perpetual spending that could not easily be cut when the inevitable crash in income happened.
Nevada should not permit any tax increases pass through the legislature. Times are tough even if you have a bright spot in your state the darkness is just waiting to cover that light.
