I do not understand why there are still people who think that the Coronavirus is not something lethal and even worse are the people who were chosen to direct the destiny of a state or nation.
I have a friend who lives in Las Vegas and she tells me that there are people who want to reopen economic activities in her city, as well as others who disagree.
Because they think that it is not the time to do it due to the high rates of contagion that are still counted every day.

It seems the mayor of Las Vegas only wants profit and do not understand the pandemic, in a recent interview with Cnn anchor Anderson Copper she wants the business open including casinos, hotels, and stadium. what do you think about this
Didn't watch the interview as responses here is enough to tell me what happened. Even how the Mayor likes it to happen, I doubt business owners will consider doing it. And local government can't just mandate it just because they want it. Since we are talking about the global pandemic virus, they need to comply with the government's current ruling and policy.
Criticisms will surely raised and the Mayor will be aware of that. I want to see what will be her next move.

Tough time to open the city for all businesses, it's true that the livelihood and her people could go hungry if she can't provide sources for her people. Its been so early that the hunger already outweighs the risk. A big city like Las Vegas will always have a chaos in times when there will be scarcity of food. People will blame her for opening casinos and stadium but she will also be blamed when chaos strikes due to people starving.
in fact, it is indeed a difficult choice when a prolonged lockdown in effect people will not have income, on the other hand, if the city or place of business is opened it will endanger everyone.that is why regional leaders like Las Vegas are confused to deal with a pandemic like today.
It might provide a time limit or a specific place to open a city and place of business so that people around can still find income even with a short time limit.

She even accused Anderson Copper of being an alarmist, so pathetic
That is literally what you get when you do not care about the best person running for the job but only care who is running. She is the wife of the old mayor as well, so between her and her husband they have been mayors of Las Vegas for the past 21 years, since 1999; which means she probably has very valid opinions about the business world that gets constant checks and that is how she could be quite very well rich, she is also one of the only mayors in the whole world who wouldn't be criticized for gambling probably and I can see how things could get interesting that way as well.She even accused Anderson Copper of being an alarmist, so pathetic
So long story short it does make sense that she would want the business' to be open, if I was getting millions from them I would probably sell my soul and open the city as well, I hope I won't if I am ever in similar position of ethical or economical, but I can at least understand it.

That Mayor is clueless! But what can we really expect from politicians in these trying times? Even their boss in the white house is also clueless of this pandemic and its effects. They have all the expert advisers around them and yet they still remain awfully ignorant. And the people are starting to grow like them too.
April 29, 2020, 10:03:34 AM
This is probably how the mayor thinks of the workers in those establishments:
But the workers are pushing back though. They are not willing to go back to work unless there are stricts measures, to protect their health, in place which I completely agree. The mayor is obviously pressured but her statement that it is up to these establishments to figure how to implement health protocols just worsens the situation.

LoL 
Does that video cover the full conversation? It seems that the Mayor is frustrated with the economy of her city.
It's ridiculous that she wants everything to be open but she doesn't care about the safety precautions or anything else. She wants her city to be a control group? Oh, come on.
How can she become a mayor?
Maybe She is just desperate because of there are thousands or millions employee in His state that starving now and also Las Vegas as the gambling capital of the world losses billions of dollars if this will continue longer.

But if She really loves Her constituents ?then the Government will be the one who decides when to let the casinos open again,and the quarantine must continue.

I'm going to sit on the opposite side of everyone's opinion and say "let the doors open up".
We're willingly only looking at MSM's words and ignoring the facts - the virus isn't as bad as they make it sound and the truth is slowly revealing.
So you're telling me that social distancing is a must and we can't even walk around anymore (which is bad for our general health) but we can visit the supermarkets on a daily basis, spend hours in them and it's perfectly fine if thousands of Romanians are going for seasonal work in Germany with no social distancing measures, no masks and so on.. and the gov even tried hiding that from us.. yeah, sure.
I can go to Germany with 1000 more people but I can't go for a walk or go to a casino. Amazing, a way of thinking that has so much logic in it..

The greed of money, it is very alarming because they prioritize the profit compare to the welfare of it's citizens. The mayor didn't even think the worst scenario if in case there will be virus carrier that will play there and it will surely spread easily, once it will happen they will surely be the center of the pandemic the same with US.

Being a hard headed will not bring a good result, if they can just wait a little longer until the vaccine will be discover then they can open without any worries.
April 29, 2020, 08:25:18 AM
I hope this is the only mayor in the world with this kind of thinking if we have two or three authorities with this kind of thinking, the world will be in trouble, Sweden is not implementing a lockdown but they are following all the precautions but Las Vegas is very much different, this is the most active city in the world and it's hard to contain its people.
April 29, 2020, 08:09:36 AM
If this got through, we all could say that this is one of the worst mayors I've ever known. It is true that the economy and the people will be affected but that doesn't mean that we should focus on the economy since, with the people in there, they could just get that back after some time. Either way, Nevada is known for gambling, they could just restart after this pandemic since it will not be a problem after this. People would be flooding the casinos, she should focus on the people more rather than on their economy.
April 29, 2020, 08:08:36 AM
Nevada has almost 4.7K confirmed cases, what is she thinking?
And based on the toll given by Google, no one is still recovering with 200+ deaths. The US had it rough, I think this is the reason why the cases are been exploding in the country. This will just make things worse.

This is one of the reasons that US is witnessing the high number of cases in the world then any other country and so many innocent people are dying . We wish this ends soon and people recover fully from it quickly. But for this we need to maintain social distancing and need to avoid public places or meet people for the time begin and opening means thing may still not improve that efficiently as it would have been in lockdown.
April 29, 2020, 07:42:08 AM
Personally, I like gambling and I like casinos and showgirls and all of that,,, but never been to Vegas so I guess I will never know if I like those things, BUT I think this is irresponsible.
People who got to Vegas are likely already high or drunk, and we want them to spread the infections even wider?
Did he not know how many people have died from it?

But even though everything their facing is very tight still there are no reason for them to Open those establishments because this is risked the peoples health and Life.
and also i don't think that Trump will allow this to happen,Nit today as they are reaching a Million COVID patients.

it says we wanted to , so it means the plan havent been started yet but before when covid isnt well known yet i think gambling is one of the source for rapid infection but now that covid is confirmed why will he do such plan ?
mayor like this should be investigated because maybe he was also doing other unwanted things that people cant see but that is better that people are now aware of what if the behavior of this mayor . now people can vote wisely next time

Lol, this interview is really a joke, I mean being a mayor she should understand the dangers of opening any businesses right now specially in a crowded place like casino. I don't know who is the mayor's advisers are, but they should all be fired out.
It seems that she really ignorant of the pandemic and it's adverse effect and how someone can get infected. Yes, maybe she just wanted to see his city makes money again, but this is totally wrong. All of us doesn't want this things to happen, but in order for us to at least contained and minimise people getting infected and in worst cases dying, every city in the states should be close until everything settles down.

OK, so they re-open all of Las Vegas... great... now what? Who's going to go there?
All of their circle maybe?The anti-lockdown protest would be glad to play at there and sharing COVID-19 between of them.
God, IDK these protests make me feels crazy went they don't really care about life and everyone who working harder to handle this pandemic like doctor and nurse.
Not just their protest and supporter, their leader trump makes a statement with no sense went he want to inject disinfectant inside the body. It could be that there is something behind this, making something like this because of politics too.
April 29, 2020, 06:16:53 AM
Everyone wants to make things back to normal, but we can't do that yet. They should be the first one to understand the situation and to protect their people's health. Seeing a mayor think that way, it's very incompetent of her. She said that Las Vegas is the entertainment capital of the world. Just wow. She really had the guts to say that on the national tv. How come she thinks of prioritizing everyone's businesses but not the health of her people? I get it, people want everything back, gamblers want to gamble, but casino is a non-essential business if she wants to re-open businesses, allow those necessary businesses only.
The cases of COVID-19 in America are rapidly increasing, and I think she's not even bothered about that because of that "We've had viruses for years". Yeah, great! A mayor that is willing to risk her people's lives just for money.
