Kelley's Dairy on Missouri Proposition "A"
I believe the Prop "A" is a bad bill and should be soundly defeated.
Vote no on Prop "A".
2. Who is really behind the money that is buying the ads we are being bombarded with on TV saying it is such a fine deal for Missourians? My best guess is the casinos.
3. Who stands to gain the most from this bill? The established casinos that are already in the state. This bill would limit the number built to just those now built and those under construction. Thirteen (13) in all I think.. That would certainly make their value go up greatly. We are a "Free Enterprise" system and should not give any business that kind of protection from competition. There are no Missouri casinos in the southwest section of the state and thus if this bill passes those of us in southwest Missouri are forced to go to Oklahoma or travel north.
4. How would raising the "loss limit' help Missourians? It would not, very few of us or our neighbors can afford to lose $500 a day as it is.
1. I really have my doubts as to it raising as much "new" money for schools as they proponents claim. I mean really, 100 million in "new" income for schools? That would mean that the citizens of Missouri that gamble would have to lose that much more than they are already losing to the casinos. Actually 100 times that much more because there would just be a 1 percent increase in the take for Missouri schools. So who would be getting the other 99 percent uptake? Yep you are right - the casinos.

5. It would also do away with the "Don't play" list. For those of you not familiar with the term, the "don't play" list is a list that you can enroll on if you know you have a gambling problem and the casinos cannot allow you to play.
Proposition "A" stinks any way you look at it.
Vote NO on Proposition "A"
