On Sunday in the Dallas Morning News, there was an article detailing the growth of the Chickasaw Nation and the casinos that they own. A couple of things jumped out at me:
1 - Winstar World Casino, at exit 1 just across the border from Texas, is the third largest casino in the world, employs 2,800 workers and pulls in more than half a billion dollars a year....90-95 percent from Texas.
2 - 238 tribes now own casinos in 38 states. The revenue - $26,000,000,000.00
Yeah, that's $26 billion.
I have just one question for the Republicans and their King in the Governor's mansion...
..... how are those budget cuts coming?
