THIS WEEK'S BUSINESS PRESS POLL QUESTION
Log on to the Las Vegas Business Press Web site and let us hear your opinion on this week's question.

The proposal is intended to penalize banks that encourage excessive risk-taking and reward executives who engage in risky banking practices like the ones blamed for the financial crisis.
"Do you support regulators' proposal to increase deposit insurance fund fees for banks deemed to be taking excessive risks?"
