Agree or Disagree

I don’t see Vegas strip being a potential monopoly in the same way that a utility company or pharmaceutical company, etc. might be one.

Still have to compete with numerous other casinos all throughout Vegas, downtown and otherwise.

Also have to compete with other entertainment destinations altogether ho, ho.

I agree with the sentiment behind the idea but strongly disagree the problem rises the the point of not needing governing intervention. Maybe on a larger scale but not the Strip specifically.

I can have my car drive me to a casino that has just as many slot machines but with far better odds. A nice hotel/resort. Bowling alley. Movie theater. Like Red Rock. It takes about the same time to fly there if you consider all the travel time. Granted if your car doesn't drive (poor souls) then the trip is a lot less enjoyable.

Yes.

The real problem isn’t the number of properties casino companies own.

The real problem is that people are fine with $30 parking charges, 6/5 blackjack, 6/5 Jacks or better VP, Triple zero roulette, & 85% RTP slot machines.

If people stopped playing that stuff & looked for better value, casinos would stop offering it.

Problem is people are getting dumber over time, not smarter so its probably only going to get worse ho, ho.

Yea .. you go to the strip if you are rich, haven't been there much, have no clue about value, or conventions.

You don't go there to gamble. They've been headed this direction forever.

The strip does have plenty of great places to eat. (Unless single) if you're not worried about value. Whatever it has all been said. They don't want value conscious people. I am surprised bellagio randomly gave me comped nights with fountain view in the spring. I'm giving my friend the room so ill go there for that and catch up with whomever is around. Vegas is kinda like a 2nd home in some ways. Lots of memories. Walking strip to downtown. Getting a bottle of booze and red solo cups in that old school diner.
