""Sarah Palin is smart, articulate, attractive, pro-life, and pro-gun, and was even a Buchananite in 1996. Her political career has been based on fighting Republican corruption. Her ratings as Alaska governor are very high. She has a compelling life story, as they say. Her husband is one-quarter Yupik Eskimo. They have five children, including one with Down's syndrome, whom they refused to abort. Palin will bring the whole Republican base home, and some Independent and Democratic women. Palin even blunts Hillary for 2012.""

The above quote from a commentator sums it up best.

The issue is whether or not this is theft. If a patron gives a tip to the dealer he is giving it to the dealer, not to Mr. Wynn so that he can steal it and redistribute it to someone else.... Sounds just like what the thugs in our government have been doing for years. And what a wonderful job they do at redistributing and spending our stolen money. (but at least the private sector (Mr Wynn) does it more efficiently).
Competent dealers that look good, smell good and can have a conversation and deal at the same time should boycott Wynn and work somewhere where they are not stolen from.
This is nothing new, it is just the next step in a direction this industry has been going in for years - going from table for table (keep your own) to shift for shift, to splitting tips over a 24 hour period.
Eventually the service will start to suck as front line employees lose their incentive to even bother with putting any effort in. When that happens the local economy will suffer. Socialism at its finest.

Find another job with better benefits. Make yourself more valuable and find a job with a better company. Competition works both ways... Start your own company, be an entrepreneur and create jobs instead of acting like you are entitled to one....
Or better yet take your sense of entitlement with you and move to a socialist country.

Anyone that is stupid enough to go to these dumb places deserves to be ripped off....
