Letter: Gaming industry unfairly feeds off taxpayers

The gaming interests have the lowest taxes in Nevada and some of the lowest anywhere in the world. They are using our money to fund their new casinos elsewhere. Their take has increased this quarter (e.g., video poker). Meanwhile the taxpayer is getting trampled and the governor remains under the control of the gaming lobby. As the farmer said when his manure wagon was running out of control downhill: "This stuff has got to stop."
