This Could Greatly Reduce the Deficit of our Country!

I found this article very interesting and had to share it.

Country Crossing bingo casino yields $1.6 million check for Houston County

DOTHAN, Ala. -- The Houston County Commission received a $1.6 million check on Thursday as the first payment of revenue generated by bingo machine stamp revenues from the Country Crossing bingo casino, the Dothan Eagle reports.

In September, the county required a stamp for all bingo machines operating in the county, with the stamps costing $1,000 per machine requiring annual renewal, according to the Dothan Eagle, which said there are nearly 1,700 bingo machines at the new Country Crossing entertainment development.

Thursday's $1.6 million check brings total bingo stamp revenue generated by Country Crossing to $1.8 million.

Houston County Commission Chairman Mark Culver said the money would be used for capital projects or to plump up the county's reserve fund balance.

WOW!!!  That is just one county in the US.  If we had a $1,000 per machine "stamp" required in all counties, that would be a nice chunk of change! 

Good gracious...

Hell, it would almost pay off our deficit!

I'm wondering how many are here in vegas alone..

Wow is your government missing the boat on this one :(:(

it's amusing to see a country that before make laws to favour the startup of gambling in a zone and after making a bunch of addict to the gambling and obviously a bunch of gambling operators it starts to tax operators and gamblers dont know how much time will take to arrive this kind of laws here

but in the meanwhile here in italy winnings are not taxed  and operators are still growing ...... (like feeding a chicken before cooking him ) the grill is coming

LOL!! 

I like that saying croalx "like feeding a chicken before cooking him,the grill is coming"

That is exactly it!!!  ;)
