Actually, many companies are incorporated in Nevada including the one you work for (but I hope you get out soon

). As a tax haven, it is a very inviting state in which to incorporate. A company doesn't have to be located in Nevada to be a "Nevada Corporation". As far as education goes, that investment is definitely underemphasized.
pokey9554,
You are correct. Companies are "based" in NV, the same way other companies are "based" in the Bahamas or Switzerland. So they may have an office, or a PO box, but major operations that employ thousands of people? Not happening in NV. I'm not knocking the state or the people there at all. Just pointing out that the policy of low taxes and loose regulation doesn't translate to a burgeoning economy. And that there is a perception that there is an under-educated work force there that scares companies away who want to hire a skilled work force.
I know this is starting to tread on some seriously thin ice and this thread could be locked soon. Hope it stays civil and doesn't though.
