Hey, you know how a lot of people who go to the Burning Man Festival every year are maybe the kind of people who would like there to be more government? OK! Here. HAVE SOME:
Bureau of Land Management (BLM) officials wants Burning Man organizers to spend $1 million on a VIP compound at this year’s festival.
The Reno Gazette-Journal reported Friday that federal officials have asked the festival to set up the compound — called the “Blue Pit” — complete with washers and dryers, hot water, air conditioning and couches for some of the 150 staffers who work the event each year.
