Right now the American Financial market is in a precarious place not seen in a long time. I don’t fully know what it means to the city, myself, or you the reader, but it means something. I went to Las Vegas last weekend, which is emblematic of the U.S. in a lot of ways. Part of the trip was full of celebration, opulence, and spectacle. The other part was a sobering experience. Though not at the level of before, the Strip of Vegas is still a vibrant, pumping heart of Nevada’s economy. Yet if you venture a bit of the strip, the city is littered with abandoned buildings, brightly colored closed businesses, and literally tumbleweeds bouncing down boulevards. Las Vegas has some of the most successful restaurants, hotels, and entertainment entities in the world, but it also has the worst forclosure rate in the country.
