Gambling in Texas

-->

This article contains an email sent to bigjollypolitics.com announcing the launch of a new pro-gambling support group name Let Texans Decide! It explains who the leader of this group is and the positives of legalizing gambling in Texas. The biggest positive is the economic impact it will have. The author of this article states “he is not a fan of gambling personally” but he does see that it could bring Texas revenue that is now currently going to our border states. He intends this article to be for anyone who is old enough to write his or her legislator. We can affect whether or not gambling is legalized in Texas. I agree with the author. I myself am not much of a gambler but I sure do approve of all the revenue it could bring our state. It is obvious that people in Texas who want to gamble will find a way to gamble in one of our neighboring states. If they are going to gamble they might as well be contributing to the Texas economy and not one of our neighboring states. For those people that see gambling as something that can destroy people, well I don’t disagree. I will say however, people with gambling problems will find a way to gamble whether that is here in Texas or up in Oklahoma. We might as well save them the gas money and fuel this economy. This decision should  be left up to the local governments to decide. I am opposed to federal government interference.
