What’s wrong with gaming? It provides a nice tax base and employs tons of people, many of them with large hooters. I want more gambling, please, not less.

Gaming is also a very “green” industry. It recyles welfare checks into chips..

This is nothing. The country gambled when they elected Obummer and the country lost their collective shirt.

do Indians run casinos in Alabama?.....if they do , then other groups should be able to do so as well....

lets have so many casinos that they all suffer and go out of business....

in Washington State, we don't allow regular citizens to have casinos, yet we bend over backwards to keep the Indians fat and happy, without taxation, this while our state has a $9 billion dollar deficit.....

whats good for the goose is good for the gander...
