Gambling News Not ALL Bad For Delaware

Delaware casinos bailout

We’re attracting lots of degenerates from NJ and PA who just have to get their fill of betting on NFL games:

From the Philly Inquirer:

The total wagered on NFL games in Delaware _ with barely one-tenth the population of New Jersey _ was $31.5 million last year, more than triple the mark set in 2009, according to Vernon Kirk, the director of the Delaware Lottery. Kirk added that the state’s share was $5.2 million, with casinos and the state’s horsemen also getting a portion of the net revenues after expenses.
Hey, at least it’s good for the mom and pop businesses that offer it. Along with the casinos, who are still crying poor-mouth.
Can you imagine how much revenue could be generated here if the monopolistic NFL lost in court, and single-game betting was legalized nationally? Of course, then, every state in the union would legalize it.
Hey, sending degenerate gamblers to the poorhouse is more attractive to politicians than, you know, raising taxes to pay for stuff.
