The American Spectator

While education administrators in Scotland enact Sharia Law through guidelines telling students to not stare at Muslim students, a pit boss will stare you down no matter who you are. And the casino reserves the right to ask you to leave for any reason—and it doesn’t have to tell you what it is.

Just think of it! A pit boss says, “Sir, I’m afraid I’m going to have to ask you to leave.”

“What’s the problem?”

“I don’t like your face.”

“My face — or my race?!”

“Neither. Do I need to call security?”

What’s more, unions traditionally aren’t welcome in casinos either, the dealers spurning one attempt after another by union representatives to organize them (with the very recent exception of the Wynn Casino). With industry-blackmailing union thuggery kept at bay, if you have issues with the agreed-upon conditions of your employment, once again, you have the option to leave.

All these reasons that casinos should run the world are in addition to the long-known economy-boosting effect that casinos have on the areas they come to. Which means that the ultimate capitalistic enterprise is a more effective wealth redistributor than any system the socialists in Congress, Europe and Latin America have been able to come up with.

With that, I nominate Las Vegas to be the new capital city of the United States of America.
