Scott: Thanks for the article. Talk about your empty rhetoric. I love the following:

At Beasley's side was Commerce Secretary Bob Royall. "You give us 27,000 workers out of video poker, and we'll put every one of them in a better paying job," Royall said.

"Top quality jobs," Beasley added.


Does this mean they are proposing to set up a placement office and guarantee 27,000 video poker employees better paying jobs? I SERIOUSLY DOUBT IT. Also, a lot of these 27,000 people are convenience store owners, gas station owners, etc. - not just somebody's employee that can skip around from one job to another.

TKA

Scott--Great article.. Here I go to my once a month Navy League meeting to listen to an Admiral speak and you scooped me<gg> Sounds like they got some attention and I am sure the evening news on all the major cities in S.C. carried the protest. The real war will be waged on an individual basis with each lawmaker.
