LOL

Barnes_Law That's it, gambling and drug revenue. That should fix it! You cant nske this stuff up.

I think I know where that missing finger of his is!

TedNesi Chicago casino owned by the government. The corruption would be epic

Barnes_Law Slinging dope and dice. Go Dems!

Hey Russia, if you are listening, please just nuke Chicago and Springfield, IL. This is where I live, just put us out of our misery and vaporize our corrupt politicians and we poor souls that are being bled dry. 4 governors since 1960s have gone to prison. 🤯

Gambling and drugs, that’ll solve Chicagos violent crime epidemic 👍🏻

LOL city owned casino

Barnes_Law Just what Chicago needs; legalized weed and gambling. I’m sure it’ll do wonders for those living in poverty. Smh 🤦🏽‍♂️ whatanidiot

Casinos are a good idea because it bring at least some of the underground cash economy back into the regulated economy. Marijuana much less of a good idea.

Barnes_Law Read enough history to know that gambling, drugs and prostitution ended badly for Chicago but, eh he's connected. What could go wrong? Chicago has gun laws and everything.

Classy

Barnes_Law So that the Chicago pols can legally sell drugs & launder the money?

Just what Chicago needs. Another source for crime

Barnes_Law I know plenty of state workers who worked every second of overtime they could the last year before they retired since their retirement pay was based on their last years salary. I know 5 prison guards that make more money retired than when they worked.

Casinos cause people to lose everything they worked for. Lottery and casinos ,don't help the economy ,they destroy it. And marijuana creates people wanting stronger drugs... because eventually the pot doesn't work...

andy_mitchell90 Will your Casino allow wagering on ufc Ari

Barnes_Law Maybe people will be too stoned to shoot each other.

Barnes_Law Gee wonder if theres any perks to him opening a casino in chicago

JustSayin_Yo Actually a solid plan.

Milton Friedman said,”If you put the federal government in charge of the Sahara Desert, in 5 years, there’d be a shortage of sand.” I give a government run casino 3 years before its bankrupt and just another taxpayer funded money pit.

Well the money has to come from somewhere?

More proof that Demo-Socialist policies don't work in the real world. This is a perfect example; too many unfunded promises to too many to buy their votes. This is the essence of the Democrat-Socialist 'Welfare Empire'. Buy their votes with the promise of other people's money.

only Democrat politicians are legalizing weed. WONDER how many liberals gets high with their own children.

Nothing like a great long term fix like throwing a Casino in a low income area... Paying for this leftist agenda is getting ridiculous... American dream YOU WORK AS HARD AS YOU CAN SO YOUR CHILDREN CAN HAVE BETTER LIVES!!!

No casino, they attract a lurid element.

Say hello to my little friend.

Legalizing marijuana I'm totally for. the government should not have his hand in our perception of reality mostly when it does not affect others. But a government ran casino is begging for some real problems

Might as well “get that dirty money”. Rahm thinking like a gangsta.😝

Let everyone sitting in a jail cell for pot convictions out!

That is some Marty Byrde stuff right there
