LETTER: Star-struck Nevada lawmakers

In response to John Katsilometes Saturday column, “Lights, camera … filmmaking in action”:

Why does anyone think welfare programs for Hollywood make sense? Warner Bros. rolls into town and Vegas goes crazy. The project manager is based in Newport Beach, so no local management benefit.

Why would Nevada taxpayers want to ship $1.9 billion in aid to California?
