I managed to live in Las Vegas without spending a dime in any of his businesses for more than a decade, which I'm not not proud of.

Damn. Last I time I went I stayed at the Palazzo at Venetian. I didn’t realize he was that much of a shitbag or else I would’ve stayed somewhere else.

In one sense, it's a public company with 50,000 employees and I had/have friends who work there so an actually effective boycott would hurt them as well, so there's more than one side to it. I did what I thought was best, but it's a little different than boycotting the Trump hotels, for example.

That said, it's not many people who can actually say they were instrumental in making two democratic countries less democratic, worse places to live while they were alive, so Adelson has that going for him.
