My heart was gladdened to read Phil Ruffin’s plans for a new “cash cow”.
He discloses that the property has been a gold mine for MGM. He is hopeful that it will remain so under his ownership.
This highlights the need to increase our gaming tax.
A modest increase should be no hardship, as other states have much higher gaming taxes.
