Battle over a Bridgeport casino and possibly a fourth casino descends into a malarkey battle as Indians push a report by some consultant Front with its headline State to Lose A Billion Dollars that boils down to IF there is litigation and IF the tribes withhold revenue sharing and IF the Indians win in court, the state will lost money.

Just request ancestry DNA on them. Thought they say they're just white posers.
I am a robot.

Got a link? Otherwise there isn't a way to decide if this is smoke and BS or if they have an actual case.
My goal of being well informed conflicts with my goal of remaining sane.

Sorry about the lack of a link but the borrowed computer I'm on can only have one tab open at a time and the mouse double clicks all the time.... drives me crazy.

" . . .
the passage of new commercial gaming legislation in Connecticut could result in the tribes placing annual revenue sharing payments into escrow until litigation was resolved.
“Should the state lose that litigation it could result in an upfront permanent loss of more than $1 billion in revenue over a four year period ($270.7 X 4 years) while potential casino sites are identified, bids and proposals are submitted to the state, the state reviews proposals and issues a license, and a casino is eventually constructed,” according to the report. . . .

The state shouldn't put up with this crap from the so called Indians.
Just block of the roads to the casino and shut them down.
They handed the license to the two tribes for a 3rd casino on non tribal land without putting it out for bidding.
The state and Indians claim it's about keeping jobs in the state.
The same amount of jobs should be created regardless of who operates the 3rd casino.
