So a bunch of people showed up in Reno to suggest that taxing mining royalties after the industry deducts a bunch of stuff leaves Nevada holding the (empty) bag, and the mining companies holding the gold, even when the price of gold is going through the roof because the economy is in the end times.
But because adjusting that mining levy would be a “tax,” it’s already off the table.
This is what we were saying yesterday: What’s the point of asking people for their ideas if you’ve already rejected what they’re going to say?
