Monte Carlo fire

Not the Monte Carlo the mecca, the Monte Carlo the icon on the Las Vegas strip, was it an accident or was it arson? The fire was blamed on a contractor whose welding torch went haywire. There are a few things that you should know about Las Vegas first. Law Enforcement the Fire Department, City Council are in bed with the casinos in Las Vegas. Whatever a casino wants done or not done, it is done no questions asked. Why? Because casinos are the backbone and the lifeblood of Las Vegas in the form of tourists dollars. MGM Grands fire of a few years past had loss of lives with it, the Monte Carlo fire had not a single loss of life, hooray! Isn't it ironic that they are both owned by the same owner to include the Mirage. Everyone who has been to Las Vegas has noticed the extreme pricing of hotels in the resort casinos and around, that is because the rates go up astronomically over the weekend and when conventions are in the major resort casinos. Rates go down Sunday through Thursday except on holidays. When the Monte Carlo reopens look for the rates to be down, so if anyone is planning a stay in Las Vegas you may come out better at the Monte Carlo. The Monte Carlo owner has 2 things to be thankful for the millions of dollars of insurance coverage and the publicity which will bring more tourists in to see if there are any changes in the decor. Everyone has their opinion and thats what makes life so spicy. Everyone has thoughts and feelings on just about every subject under the sun. That's wonderful isn't it? Of course it is. This city still has it overshadowing of the mafia of the days of long ago only with sophistication in this day and time. Accident or Arson? You make the choice. Thank you.
