Mining Towns : Nevada and Colorado

Aspen is a mining town. Before the ski resorts, Aspen earned money by the mines. Las Vegas is a mining town. The entire city is turning into a mining disaster. The vein has run dry. All the eggs were in one giant basket. When times were mighty, locals used to protest, “You can’t get any protection around here unless you live near a casino.” I can walk to the casinos from my front porch, but my wife and I will never leave the house after seven in the evening. The town has become lawless. The Governor, Senator, and Mayor have all been investigated by the Federal government. No one cares. In four short years, the layers of this cake have been devoured. All that was sweet is now stinky. The air is tested for ozone on a daily basis, newborn infants are attacked by men off their medication with axes used to chop trees in half. This is a true story. At random, a man jumped out of his apartment and attacked an infant with her mother by using an axe for the murder. Las Vegas biggest real estate agent has decided to abandon his casinos along Las Vegas Boulevard, so that he can maintain his Chinese properties along the coastline of Macau. Macau is the new casino mecca where the Vegas conventions are moving to. Time to leave. My wife packed and took our son to visit her mother, I stayed to plan our move to - Anywhere - Any city outside of Nevada - My job was to find a better place to start a business.
