I think what ought to happen is California legalizing gambling for non-Indian groups as well The absolute worst idea. Yet I think the Schwarzenegger camp will do this or seriously look in to it, if nothing else as their best bargaining chip with the tribes.
I don't want Las Vegas coming to CA. I don't like Indian casinso at all either. We never had them when I was growing up. All we had was the track.
More gambling is not the answer.

I tend to agree that we'd be better off without casinos at all, but the Indian ones are a fact of life, and they're going to spread into the urban areas. Las Vegas type establishments are coming whether we like it or not, so the only question is whether they'll all be Indian owned. If the state wants a cut, the only way it's going to get it is to let non-Indians open them up too.
