Seeing is believing when that happens. The Baptists aren't voting it in, but they'll drive across the state. Mark Cuban is betting it passes, but I have my doubt.

This is very interesting to me.

I live in Choctaw Indian land, but I'm not Indian. About a third of the people I know around here have a CDIB. The big Choctaw Casino on 75 in Durant, OK is packed with DFW folks every single day.

If the DFW people get a casino, obviously the Choctaws and Chickasaws are fricked. They won't have as much money to spread around. They already offer free health care, subsidized housing and food programs and child care, etc along with a shite ton of jobs.

If that happened, it would really hurt southern Oklahoma. But it could lead to lower land prices and could expand my farm at a discount. So even though most around are deathly afraid of Texas getting casinos, I really don't care and would actually be quite happy with DFW folks keeping their asses in DFW.
