Thank You, (P)regressives

 

As I work on filling out the Colorado Mail In Ballot (only option in CO) I found this site very useful.

Amendment 77 is the only one I agree with their position. This allows the local citizens of the three counties with casino gambling to determine what games, limits, etc., will be allowed. I believe in local control over local affairs. On a personal level, my “gambling” is limited to $10 a week in lottery tickets.

When I do submit my ballot, it will be in the drop off box at City Hall.

$10 per week to the lottery? $520 annually? My old fork lift driving co-worker Joe also played the lottery regularly. To date, I think he is still dead broke and in debt up to his eyeballs.

Then again, he may have hit the jackpot and is now living large on his own private Carribean island. I wouldn't bet on it, though.

Over the years I've blown about a six pack a week, and I don't drink beer. The most I've won, at once, is 5 of 6. about $560. The payroll bitch that always messed up my washout check won $1,500,000 that week (less taxes). She just put it in the credit union and kept on messing with my money.
