I read today that 300 Nevada state workers may have to be laid off. I have a suggestion. Stop sending Nevada sales tax money to Phoenix, Ariz., for processing. I own the Genoa Bar and every month I send your sales tax money out of state.
It sure seems like some Nevada folks could use those accounting jobs we currently outsource to Phoenix. I'm sure that someone has figured it's a little cheaper to let the Phoenix processors do it.
But I bet if you added the jobs it would create for Nevadans into the equation, it would be a different bottom line.
It would mean less people on unemployment, I keep hearing about "where's the jobs?" well, apparently they're in Arizona, paid for with Nevada tax dollars.
