Icahn made a fortune on this by simply having the money to purchase it out of bankruptcy and then selling it 7 years later. He made nearly half a billion on it when it sold.

Steve Wynn has also been purchasing additional land up on the strip. (He closed on a $336 million purchase this month. ) Once it appeared the tax bill had a shot to get through, these guys started ramping up.

In fact, Vegas has had some big sales this year. Pretty remarkable considering some of these places had been blighting up the skyline ever since Obama took office.

The best quote in the article...

Quote:“You can just feel it,” said Witkoff, who’s been friends with the president for more than 30 years. “You can feel the pent-up fervor that’s happening out there, and it hasn’t even seeped through the system yet. And I’m not a Republican ideologue, for God’s sake.”

Hey, better than manned by people stealing Rolex watches for fun in China.

You know, the kind of folks that were forced to thank the POTUS against their will.

Hey look y'all.....this leftist has discovered a new word. Too bad whoever taught it to him didn't explain to him what it means.


Allowing companies to keep the money they earn isn't corporate welfare. If you are looking for corporate welfare you should Google Solyndra. THAT'S corporate welfare.

Amazing how some people buy into leftist propaganda hook, line and sinker. What else does the left have these days but anti-America propcaganda. You leftists are finally seeing real hope and change in action.

THAT is what is so mindboggling. That people can actually think peoples earned income actually belongs to the government. Due to this project, millions in loans will be borrowed which employs multiple financial jobs. Not to mention all the construction related jobs that will come from this project. All these people have families that benefit as well. Yet, all the leftest see is "corporate welfare". I guess that'll be one of the talking points moving forward.

It's just yet another example that economics may as well be Klingon when it comes to leftists.

A successful growing economy=Bad for Democrats.
More people needing Government assistance=Good for Democrats.

It's really simple. And the main reason I don't vote for them.

Stealing from the Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid that people paid taxes into those systems and give it to these corporations are corporate welfare.It is not even their money when they hide their cash oversea.

Except nobody is "giving" them anything.

Explain exactly how they are stealing when it's their own money they are keeping rather than having the government steal it.
