Do we need/want 4 new Casinos

[Woolly Bugger]

After months of negotiations about a plan to legalize more gambling options in North Carolina, Republican Senate leader Phil Berger's office released a copy of the legislation on Saturday, which would authorize four more casinos.

The legislation, which was obtained first by CBS 17, outlines the process under which the state would choose who would operate the four casinos and where they would be.

Republican legislative leaders still intend to move forward with legalizing video lottery terminals as well in places like bars and restaurants, but that aspect of this proposal is still being discussed and is not a part of the bill draft obtained by CBS 17.

Sen. Berger's office noted that the casino legislation was shared with Democrats Saturday evening. Saturday evening, Rep. Jason Saine (R-Lincoln), who is a top budget writer in the House, said a vote on the casino plan could come as early as Wednesday.

Conceptual freedom makes for great conversation, but those who think that somehow this will be a win probably is unwilling to acknowledge certain realities.

If Berger and his gang are for it, I'm not.

Here's a guy that I look to for guidance now and then. I agree with his opinion on the topic.
