Our state suffers from extremely high taxes, and loss of jobs. We have the second highest taxes I believe. And the state's main conscern is that kids are leavig Maine for jobs, instead of staying.

So a big resort casino comes to town with $, jobs, and more $. They want to build a big casino and all. The plus side, brings thousands of jobs, brings millions of dollars, and keeps people in Maine. A big casino will cause big traffic, that'll increase revenue all of the state, and give other places business. Plus a percentage of slots as well, and many other things. We're garanteed 100 million in taxes, thats way more then all the other business, combined....

So you got some old people crying about drugs and prostitution and what not. They just care about keeping the state poor and uneffected by the real world. So they go all out on a slam campaign. They make commercials saying Maine won't get any tax $, saying little kids will be able to play black jack, full of lies. Then the casinos come back with peaceful commercials with real facts. That was nuts.

The people voted no on the casino... Gee, and they wonder why kids leave ofter high school. Why there is no $, and why taxes are so high. Idiots! I know I'm outta here, forget Maine.
