LETTER: Clark County, city of Las Vegas living up to low expectations

Thank you to Steve Sebelius and your editorial staff for reminding readers on Sunday how our elected officials and appointed bureaucrats know better than all of us (tongue firmly implanted in cheek).

The city of Las Vegas did a wonderful and mostly successful job of playing “hide the ball” concerning two combatants on the City Council, using common bureaucratic tricks such as requiring open record requests to outline which camera on which floor near which bathroom the reporter wanted to see. Failing that, it was “give us a check for several thousand dollars so we can review all the cameras.”

Then, in unrelated issue highlighting a similar abusive action toward citizens, our beloved county commissioners escaped out the back door to avoid answering questions about a lack of action by county bureaucrats.

Shameful and disgusting behavior by both political bodies.

The Biden administration is going all out to convince people that inflation is not as bad as it really is.

LETTER: A Trump-Biden cage debate

I would love to see a debate between our two presumptive presidential candidates. Just the two of them, one-on-one.

LETTER: Groundbreaking on a rail line to California

I’m voting against every politician who — in the picture at the groundbreaking shown in the Review-Journal — celebrated pouring our tax money down the drain.

LETTER: Nevada’s open space is a gift

The governor’s suggestion to release more of Nevada’s federally owned land is a form of federal spending and diminishes Nevada’s gift of open space.
