Screw Mining!

According to a tweet from the Sun’s Anjeanette Damon, the mining industry’s lobbyist, Tim Crowley, told her today that his “industry ‘could live’ with an income tax if there is consensus at the Legislature.”

In other words, in order to keep its precious tax deductions that no other industry or business in Nevada enjoys, mining is willing to shove an income tax up the rest of our collective wazoos.

Well, screw mining. If the choice is whether they pay more or I pay more….up theirs!
