LETTER: Cut! No more Nevada handouts for Hollywood

I vote “no confidence” that providing tax credits, subsidies or otherwise to Sony and other film companies is going to enrich the majority of Southern Nevadans. I see it as just another “deal” that will benefit only a handful of already rich people.

Lawmakers need to focus on attracting business and industry that will intrinsically invest in benefitting the majority of Nevadans (working class, veterans, seniors). Every tax subsidy, tax credit and tax break given to corporations negatively impacts revenue flow into and for Nevada.

LETTER: Sonia Sotomayor, retirement and race

Using race to justify or condemn the action of others is simply wrong and, some would say, the definition of racism. We are all one people.

LETTER: Is there another Joe Biden out there?

Both the front-runner presidential candidates should step aside and give us some choices who are younger and have fresh ideas to get us out of the $35 trillion debt.

LETTER: Deciphering progressive jargon

I noticed recently that euphemisms are commonly used by progressives in order to make the agenda they support seem less harsh or unpleasant.

LETTER: Biden ignores the Supreme Court on student loans

Biden is constantly harping on how Trump is a threat to democracy and will be a dictator, eliminating our freedoms. It is Biden, however, who has proven himself the dictator who is threatening democracy.

LETTER: More on 1968

As a cop who was at not only at the 1968 Democratic convention at the Conrad Hilton on Michigan Avenue, but also the Chicago arson fires on the west side, I feel there were many reasons why the city was a tinderbox.
