You would think the idiot progressives that run the NV legislature would pass a truth in hotel rates legislation instead of spending all their time thinking up ways to rob working people for the benefit of public unions, welfare queens, illegal aliens and other parasites.


Mr. Anthony Curtis and your moderators: Here is my question: How come you are so quick to delete threads that actually contain intelligent discussion by adults (i.e. the recently deleted thread on the nature and possible solutions to the U.S. national debt), and yet you allow a scumbag like melbahooey to start a thread supposedly about resort fees, and then also allow this piece of crap to go sideways, like the snake he is, and hijack his own thread to piss on "public unions, welfare queens, illegal aliens and other parasites", in order to push his Nazi political agenda?

Why is that?



I'm sure that your definition of "intelligent conversation" is conversing with people who think EXACTLY like yourself. You don't seem to be tolerant of anyone with a different point of view but that doesn't surprise me. You are much quicker than Malibber or Chilcoot to have a hissy fit when someone has a conservative point of view.

Once again, you may have "mispoken". I believe you should have said, "She charged ME a lot more than that."

So when are you going back to your miscreant ways and regale us with your ribald reports?

I think you may have "misspoken". I believe you should have assumed the miscreant ways are still continuing and said, "When are you going to regale us with your ribald reports? As this place is getting boring again with too much talk about resort fees and Swiffers."

Resort fees are chicken shit. No doubt. But I don't need Big Brother protecting me. I know a $25,000 car is gonna cost a lot more than that when I add in sales tax; even if I don't know the exact tax rate. And if anyone is surprised by add-on fees in the travel or any other market segment, they're simply brain dead.
.

I'm not brain dead and I've been coming to LV and Reno for 25 years and have never paid more than the listed price plus the state sales tax, which the hotel has no control over. My May trip to Terrible's, the IP and Plaza, will be the same. I can't imagine what disgust someone who snags a Palace Station room for $15 on Expedia feels when they realize they will be charged double what they thought. These resort fees are NOT disclosed on these sites in a manner that a novice would notice. When you buy a $25K car only to go home and find out you got charged for $3k as an undisclosed "wheel fee" that was only listed in the fine print would change your opinion.
These resort fees as currently implemented are nothing but FRAUD on the consumer.
