This article is saying how a land as barren as that of Nevada, can still make for good trade. Nevada has made itself a place where questionable events may be held. By doing this they give them self the comparative advantage in tourism. Tourism may not seem like a good but it is. Nevada, by hosting these events, give the tourist an incentive to come. Nevada has made itself more profitable than other tourist destinations by having things such as Boxing and Prostitution. In the interstate/international market for tourism, Nevada has made itself a top competitor.  In the economic terms, Nevada can produce certain services (prostitution, casinos, boxing,...etc) with less opportunity costs (prison, fines, fees,...etc) than the leading competitor. Also it is in a prime location. People from all over the states can fly or drive to Nevada to see the shows and events that would be illegal elsewhere.  This truly shows that with smart planning, any country/entity has the ability to trade successfully.
