Sometime in 2023, the state of Nevada will have one of their key departments turn 50 years old. It seems like yesterday when our Legislature established homeowners associations and placed them under the new state Real Estate Division (1973). What a day that must have been in Carson City.

Why are state officials not celebrating this historic feat? Are they not proud of what was done did? Surely someone in our Legislature or within the Real Estate Division can explain in detail to the public, through the Review-Journal, all of the good things they have accomplished for the public in the past 50 years. It would make us proud.

I suggest that the change from every sales tax transaction ending with one, two, three or four cents — those pennies that we will not see — be delegated to go toward our national debt.
