I haven’t paid much attention to this issue, but it seems to me that if California is going to go all-out with Casinos instead of just have them in isolated Indian Reservation areas, then we ought to have real casinos, with sports betting, all the games, not just blackjack, and let people other than Indians make all the money. Why the pretense?

I’ve gotten to the point where I just vote “no” on everything.
There’s always a hidden agenda we know nothing about.

The casions should not be expanded. California government needs to slash spending. Period. Casinos are just another way for ordinary folks to get robbed.

I go to two of the casinos quite often and the addition of slots wouldn't make much of a difference. Maybe machine selection would be better, but there are almost always vacant spots any time except possible Saturdays and Sundays. Even then the peek seems to be around those evenings. Don’t see where this will hurt anything much. The problem is Las Vegas has priced itself out for most people. It has become a playground mostly for the rich.

and the concentration of one-third of the state's gambling profits into just four wealthy tribes.

It's is not the state's gambling profits. Why do these bureaucrats think they own everything?

If they are going to expand gambling, they should open it to anyone, and get full tax benefit.
