Nevada bill would allow tech companies to create governments:
Planned legislation to establish new business areas in Nevada would allow technology companies to effectively form separate local governments.
Democratic Gov. Steve Sisolak announced a plan to launch so-called Innovation Zones in Nevada to jumpstart the state's economy by attracting technology firms, Las Vegas Review-Journal reported Wednesday.
The zones would permit companies with large areas of land to form governments carrying the same authority as counties, including the ability to impose taxes, form school districts and courts and provide government services.
The measure to further economic development with the "alternative form of local government" has not yet been introduced in the Legislature.
[...] The governor's economic development office did not respond to questions about the zones Wednesday.

I am sure Carnal Pleasures LLC will be a hit. Just imagine a 200 square miles park with naked whores of all ages walking around ready and able. It's limitless. Say sky dive with your instructor leaking your parts...

My take is that the prostitution and gambling businesses will be early adopters. Should be interesting to see what they come up with.

I ain't gonna work on Faggie's farm no more!
Well, he hands you a nickel,
He hands you a dime,
He asks you with a grin
If you're having a good time,
Then he fines you every time you slam the door.
