BC's Insatiable Appetite For Cash


Engaging in business which has no redeeming social values used to be the area of human exploitation engaged in only by the criminal element who were once considered outlaws.

The lines are becoming blurred enough to have become nearly indistinguishable. 

How has our province become so poorly managed that in spite of  incredible natural resources, high taxes and now the HST, that this government is so dependent on gambling as a revenue source?

Do you think this type of taxation takes from the well to do in society and gives it to the poorer? Think again, it exploits those in society that can least afford to loose any more of their income to this cash starved monster we have created.


Recently when the governments online casino site was down for repairs it was reported they were loosing about $190,000.00 per day! If you think you can win at online gambling, where do you think that $190,000.00 (probably gross understatement) per day was going to come from?
