The Senescent Man

The rats have come out to divvy up the cheese. With the vote in the House last night and probable passage by the Senate, the insiders are making their deals to fleece the residents of this sorry State again. Even if you are not foolish enough to gamble, you have to be an idiot to believe that this will be an advantage to the local economy. A big fraction of the profits go OUT OF STATE into Harrah's coffers. And when Massachusetts finally goes down this same road, revenues will be mostly coming from RI. Anyone who expects property taxes to go down because of this is an naive as they come. Bait and switch is the game. Even if its written into the Constitution, just look for them to change the State Aid to Education formula to make up for it. It will be a CRAZY SUMMER of lies and promotions to bamboozle the voters.
