Casinos have cheapened Oklahoma, if that was possible,and are mostly trashy and a blight on the state. Some tribes, Choctaw, have provided some good tribal programs. Others, Cherokee, you wonder where the money goes.
In small towns the small casino is like a dark shadow. They remind me of the old county and state line beer joints but just newer models.
You would think they are already overbuilt with more than 90 in the state. I dont see how they can avoid becoming unsightly blights that need to be condemned. This will lead to even worse indian poverty.
It is a shame, the more indian an area is the more blighted and trashy it is. If the redman was ever dignified he has been stripped of it. One road I know is just a linear trash can.
Rural version of big city “issues”.I’ll take the rural.
Too bad that can’t all be like the Mescalero Apache Inn of the Mountain Gods in Ruidoso, NM.
