Las Vegas’s recovery, like America’s, seems to have to come to the wealthiest first. [...]
But Sin City’s recovery shows the enduring ability of America to make improbable ideas work. Some 2m people live in a glittering, sprawling city deep in the desert and hardly think that this is strange. And with its mix of tech-obsessed yuppies, ageing baby-boomer gamblers and thrusting Hispanics, its demography resembles America’s future.

No. Actually it is not. I was there this year and the locals told me that the free drinks are 'going away' to be replaced by points driven reward cards. Vegas is a nasty cesspool where porn is thrust at anyone walking by, and where art and culture go to die.
If this demographic is our future?
Our only hope is a meteor strike.
