Do not understand Indian monopolies for casino gaming when other forms of gaming exist in a state. Makes no sense. Either a state doesn't have gaming and then they have to make a pact with Indian gaming because they can't shut it off, or they have other forms of gaming and they allow everyone to play the ownership game under statutory/regulatory rules set up for it that works in the interest of the state and its citizens. Florida has gaming. Why not have better gaming?

Competition with Hardrock where payout is too low.

As long as I have lived in Florida this has been an issue. They allow the Indians to profit and have no regulation to the payout / loss ratio. When you go to an Indian resort it's not the same as Vegas. The win percentage in Vegas is set as a minimum by the state. No such rule exists for
the Indians. In fact, the Hardrock payout is like 3% vs 19% in Vegas. So if your going to allow some form of Casino to operate it should be one that is regulated by state rules and collection of taxes. I say yes. All the con-men are here already.
