They have a nice, tax rate, comparitively. Yeah the economy is swimming in a toilet waiting to be flushed, but it did the same thing soo many times and always re-bounds. The gaming companies who deserve the most speculation are those with properties in other states such as Louisiana, Illinois, and Missouri, where they all pay 55% of their take for education taxes (REALLY makes me wonder about Nevada'a fialing education system) If they all stop spending so much on properties right now they will all survive in the long-run.

I have often wondered how places stay in business by continually comping to bring people in. Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy the "freebies" and do gamble my share while I am there. If Station casinos are "hurting" I wonder how is it that a monstrocity like the MGM Grand can stay in business, really. Vegas should stop building,and take care of whats already there and stop the mentality of thinking the bigger the better which is not always the case. I hope the best for all the casinos from management to the busboy. Everyone is is important and should be treated as such.

Dear Donkey, haven't you heard of a thing called Karma? guess what? it is a bit**! watch out, it might soon be your employer as well.

They have a sound business plan and have one the highest ratings for employee relations. Given enough time they should weather out this financial storm and once again turn a profit.

They are no longer a publicly owned company.
