Yeah, that’s exactly what I mean. I don’t think most people understand that, and it will lead to people losing faith in experts when they’re told inflation is back to pre-pandemic levels but prices aren’t.

People don’t understand this about inflation and it will disappoint them very soon once inflation is fully back to rates we saw pre-pandemic.

It’s funny, I think Vegas is perfectly fine as the city of sin so things like this really don’t phase me. It was built on the idea of crime and excess.

What does seem weird to me is how in a desert, why isn’t everything solar? The sun is their only natural resource besides sand. Every rooftop and parking lot and flat surface possible seems like it should be a panel.
