Its the other way around, my friend. You haven't refuted anything I've posted. You're emotional about it, either on moral grounds, or you feel stupid for how you started arguing without understanding the issue. Its ok.


Other than showing our bordering casino states have a shittier economy than ours and our workforce is better.

This is just....crazy. Arkansas sending millions out of state doesn't impact our bottom line. We must be even richer than you claim. Its funny, though. When Arkansas learns Mississippi is considering a lottery, we get concerned. Because we know how much $ we get from Mississippi people buying tickets. I'll post this link to a story, explaining it in simplistic terms, but I know you won't bother reading it. You haven't read any of the links I've posted because you're emotionally invested at this point. You think like a woman. Are you a woman? Here's the link: LINK


So, because someone doesn't agree with your view, they have to be a woman? Lol

Show me where Arkansas is sending millions and millions...as pointed out, it's obviously not helping them and not hurting us.

You don't understand economics at all. Jobs aren't just generated by the casinos themselves. They are generated by hotels and restaurants that come as a result of those casinos. Taxes also come to the state as a result of that.


You got me. I don't understand economics at all......

Again, you just threw out an absurd number of 10k jobs....Yet you attack me for saying that the number is absurd....which it is.

2 casinos, as you've stated would not bring anywhere close to 10k jobs....

Your argument against the lotto is terrible. So what if the scholarship amounts aren't what they were in the beginning. Thousands of Arkansas kids are getting help with school that they would not get if it wasn't for the lottery. Some $$$ is a lot better than none.
