but the government can't do anything right! Remember Katrina?

Why would a bible beating administration want to save "Sin City"?

Since when did Katrina hit Las Vegas?
I never heard of Vegas being called Sin City, only New Orleans. *shrugs*

Why do I pay for someone else's education?  Why do I pay for someone else's transportation?  Why do I pay for basic services?

Dumbest argument ever, FoC.

The answer to all these questions is to create a healthy, educated country that contributes to society - helping make us prosperous and safe.

To say that basic services - education, health care, etc. - are not anyone's responsibility is incredibly short sighted and self centered.  But we already know where you stand on that platform.

Can I live under your rock when you're done with it?
If it's OK with your parents, sure.

I may have been confused, but my point still stands. The bush administration's reaction to katrina was terrible because they didn't care if New Orleans was destroyed.

Vegas is the city that never sleeps (Due to the always running lights, lack of clocks and jet-lagged tourists from all over) and Sin City, due to all the fucking.

Any other answer for those two nicknames is wrong.

Not to mention that there is no last call in Vegas.  You can drink and party all night and all day.  It truly is my favorite place on Earth.

Vegas sucks now that it is run by multinationals looking to wring every last dime out of everyone in town. Way better when the mob called the shots.

Still awesome. Since the recession hit, they are back to being (more) generous. They give out loads of free shit lately, and you don't even have to play much. A few years ago, when they were targeting CA yuppies/trust fundies/people with more money than sense, it was too expensive...but that was all totally changed the last time I went there.

Rooms are cheap, many clubs have free cover (and they pass out drink coupons!), and restaurants have great specials. I saw an offer the other day where PH has $50 rooms with a free bottle of liquor a night. Sure, it's probably old crow, but come on.

If you aren't totally poor, Vegas hasn't been this good in years.
