yo vote yes on all 3, it allows slot machines to be put into tribe casinos, just do it, cuz we've fucked the indians for so long and took their land from them, its the least we can do guys. plus revenues goes to us, cuz if people from cali go to las vegas then vegas is profiting off us and we dont get shit in return

What I understand on the issue:

They already have slot machines, it's expanding it from 2,000 to 7,500 if I remember correctly. The money essentially goes to the 4 main tribes who already receive revenue. I've heard that the actual money we stand to earn from it (California) has generally been exaggerated, and one of the main reasons that it's been standing on it's own was the fact that the tribes were focusing on how money would go towards "Schools," although it's not actually in writing anywhere in the proposition (read: will never happen).

I voted against.

the measure is only for the 4 wealthiest indian tribe and does not include the smaller tribe, basically i think it's the 4 big casinos in california are benefit from it thats it, the rest of the smaller tribe are still fuck. the only up side is that california state might benefit from the tax revenue gain fro the machines, but it's extremely relative small amount.

it wasn't a very fair ballot imo. if the native american were to be benefit from it, i think all tribes need to be included as well

im not too versed in this whole voting thing but im pretty sure these props will benefit the larger more organized, more established [in the gambling world], tribes. vegas has backed the smaller tribes because it is in their [vegas'] best interest.

from what i gather the rich get richer the poor get poorer. nothing new.

im not about to discount the morality issue either, especially since gambling addiction is prolly thee biggest addiction problem [well, save shabu] in the asian community. government sanctoined dopamine.
