I’ve never been a fan of lotteries and gaming, but it’s time to end the legislature’s crony capitalism.
Why should a small well connected clique be the primary beneficiaries of expanded gaming?
DEFAC just reported that the historic budget shortfall Gov. Jack Markell and legislators will have to solve has grown even more severe and now is above $775 million.
If there’s any one thing that is crystal clear from DEFAC’s dire news,
it is that the General Assembly needs to pass the Governor’s sports
lottery bill when they return to Dover. It is time to start canvasing the GA to see who is in the pocket of the racino lobby.
There is no reason in hell that Dennis McGlynn and Michelle Rollins should enjoy an exclusive monopoly that allows them to hold back gaming revenue. If someone has a reason why the McGlynn and the Rollins family should be able to hold this monopoly, (other than the fact that they own the required number of legislators) I’m all ears.
