More Gaming At Seminole Casinos



Let's see, "should Florida allow more gambling at Seminole Indian casinos if the state gets more tax money"? This is a NO BRAINER! However, there are a few points I would like to make.

The state budget right now is a nightmare. It needs all the help it can get.

As far as I know, "the state does not get anything from the Seminoles now, so, what do YOU mean "more tax money"?

If the state does not reach an agreement with the Seminole Tribe by a specific date, the Dept. of the Interior will let the tribe proceed with changes nonetheless.

Gambling is a "voluntary tax". Nobody says you have to participate. However, you still will reap the benefits of increased tax revenue generated by gaming.

If Orange County, specifically, wants to be this "major convention destination", then we need to be offering some adult enticements. Such as "real" casino action. Convention goers on average, are not here for Mickey Mouse. Grow up and realize that.

Getting paid for giving permission to something that will benefit you is a win win. Is that so hard to figure out?

The more YOU grow, the further YOU go,
