Default Revenue in Vegas down for 22nd month.

People still arent heading to the slot machines like they used to. 22 months of far less than normal revenue coming into the casinos is proof that people are keeping tight rein on their finances.

Casinos and sales taxes usually make up two thirds of the states revenue, but with less tourists, that too is suffering.
This is the 11th straight month that sales taxes have been down.

Table game playing has also dropped.

This just shows just how bad the economy has really gotten. I think it is alot worse than the government is willing to say. This has been a bad year all way round. I sure hope the New Year will bring some good news for a change.
