    But my main point still stands. An AP brings no value to society when they win money from the casino. The only entity bringing value in a casino is the casino. Because the only value that is occurring is entertainment.

    APs and welfare recipients are similar in that neither party brings value to society in the way they get their money. That’s the way I should’ve phrased it. And I stand by that statement. Both an AP and welfare recipient can bring value to society by how they invest and spend their money. I agree with you on that point.

    Thanks for getting that clarified. I’ll review my post more closely before I send them next time.

    Good discussion. The more I debate this with you Bosox, the more I can see my views are correct
    Lol! Pointless to discuss anything with you. Once you are proven wrong you claim you misspoke. Or you argue semantics. You do this over and over again. Im done with you. Have a nice life and best of luck to you with your AP career. I sincerely wish you the best (Also dont read posts and reply while you are driving, you may end up hurting or killing an innocent person)
    I can see neither you or Bosox understand this. Yeah, I misspoke. I’ll own up to that, but it doesn’t change my bigger point.

    Answer me this question: What value does an AP bring to society when they win money at a casino? You probably won’t be able to answer this question. I’ll give you a hint. The answe is NONE.

    Here’s another question: Name another job that adds no value to society. So far I have not been able to find anyone who can think of another job that adds NO value to society or the economy. If you can, you’ll be the first.
    Bob, I will give you something to think about, what happens when an AP is having a good day? HE/she is winning money and numerous ploppies are taking notice thinking that if someone else can do it while betting heavier so can I. Resulting in the ploppies getting over excited and also overbetting losing their shirt. Now who helped the casino now make more money for the company? That same casino who is giving a portion to the States and local Governments. Shove it up your ass Bob.

    This is why APs are parasites on the economy. They are attacking the government’s voluntary tax program which is taking revenue away from state and local governments.

    Our economy would be better off if all APs would get a real job and go to casinos and play in a negative EV way, like most people. This would contribute more to our state and local governments. APs don’t need to do this because it’s legal to be an AP but no AP should ever think they're doing anything that’s benefiting anybody, including the government.
    Wait a minute Bob. This sounds you are saying the government can manage our money more effeciently than we can ourselves. I thought you didnt like liberalism. The idea that the government should have our money because they will us it better than we will is about as liberal as you can get. Most conservatives and even a large number of otherwise liberals agree that they would prefer to allocate their own money and not have the government do it and that the government is already too big and intrudes into citizens lives too much.

    AP - Win money. Buys food, clothes, cars, rent, ect. Provides jobs and stimulates the economy

    Goverment - Gets Money. - Huge Pensions, Spy on US citizens while ignoring warnings from flight schools that arab men want to learn to fly but dont need to know how to take off or land, commission $10Mill study of dust mites, fund a recreation of the play Hamlet with a cast of dogs (They really did this google it) Sieze peoples cash through civil asset forfiture with no evidence of a crime, etc, etc, etc

    Thanks but I think the less money the government has the better
    I agree DGenBen. I think our government takes way too much of our money. I don’t even agree with Social Security. I think we should manage our own money for retirement; it should not be the function of the government.

    I’m a conservative and I think money is better in the hands of an individual than the government. The government obviously needs some money to operate.

    I was only pointing out what the function of the casino is. It is primarily a voluntary tax program for the government. By removing money from this program (casinos), you’re doing nothing to help the economy or society or the government.

    An AP is no different then a welfare recipient. The welfare person gets a check directly from the government for doing nothing, while an AP siphons off money from our government’s voluntary tax centers (casinos) for doing nothing of value for society.

    Both the welfare recipient and an AP are NOT doing anything illegal, but they also aren’t doing anything of value, meaning nothing to benefit the economy or society. Yes, they both spend money but it’s really the government’s money or someone else’s money. They haven’t earned the money by doing anything of value for the economy or society.

    I can tell you’re struggling to understand that point.

    Hey Bosox, that was a halfway decent reply. Much better than I was expecting. Basically, you’re saying an AP winning money makes the average gambler (in AP jargon, a ploppy) lose more. So hence the casino and state get more. Not bad. Very creative reply.

    So I guess if you look at it this way, the AP is adding value as he’s winning money. He’s helping the casino and state get more money based on your hypothetical situation. A stretch, but you did answer my question. Thanks...and good job!

    But the way, you said I was supposed to shove “it”. What do you mean by “it”? I like to shove things. I just don’t know what “it” is. I need to know what “it” is before I can shove “it”.

    My standard answer was, then don't play with them. The protocol is the resident complaining is the one who moves.

    You’re wrong tableplay. Governments approve casinos for the PRIMARY purpose of raising revenue for the state and local governments. All governments understand the downside of casinos but they’re willing to live with these downsides because of the revenues casinos bring into the government.

    Just like our government does with defense contracts, our government contracts out casinos to private business. Of course the private businesses who run casinos are going to try to make as much profit as they can. The same is true for defense contractors that are private businesses.

    Hey tableplay do some research on this and don’t just drink the Kool-Aid of what other APs have told you. Nevada legalized casinos to raise revenue to build Hoover Dam. New Jersey also legalized casinos in Atlantic city to raise revenue.

    Every state and local government that has approved casinos has done it to raise revenue for state and local governments. A byproduct of casinos is the industries and people who run casinos also become wealthy.

    I’m surprised how many APs don’t understand this. They think govenrments legalize casinos to make fat cat casino operators wealthy. APs have no understanding of how our government works. Probably because they spend too much time in a casino. Lol

    Ah the moving target. First it's the Casinos' primary purpose to generate revenue for the government (this was your first assertion which was debunked) and now it's the government who's primary purpose for allowing casinos is for tax revenue (two very different statements). I guess since the first didn't work out you now state the second and then write as if I was arguing against the second when I was arguing against the first (you'll now claim you are confused by what I just wrote or some such nonsense). What a joke.

    Bob21 algorithm:
    1) Make an assertion
    2) Have it debunked
    3) State a different assertion and pretend it was the original assertion
    4) Ask why people just don't understand the new moving-target assertion
    5) rinse and repeat

    This is why the best strategy against a Bob21 is to just ignore him. He is using the Bullshit Asymetery Principal to his advantage.

    “The amount of energy needed to refute bullshit is an order of magnitude bigger than to produce it”

    You guys love to catch people on technicalities...and usually miss the main point! The two statements you quoted are NOT that different. They convey the same meaning. I’m not putting together a legal briefing here so I don’t spend much time parsing my words. Only an idiot like you wouldn’t be able to see these two statements are basically saying the same thing.

    Ok smarty pants, why do you think govenrments approve casinos? So they can make “fat cat” casino operators wealthy? Do you really beleive that?

    Here’s a bonus question for you? Why were casinos legalized in 1931, the same year the Hoover Dam project started? My guess is you’ll think it is so our government could make all the mob people who ran casinos wealthy.

    You’re really having a hard time understanding why state and local governments legalized/legalize casinos aren’t you? Most people I discuss this with pick it up faster than the AP crowd.

    By the way, am I going to have to call you “tableplay, forum detective” too? This is what Bosox usually does...tries to catch someone on some meaningless technicality, and misses the main point. That’s one reason he got the nickname “Bobo, forum detective”. I think I’ll call you Bobo’s sidekick, little Bobo.

    LOL! He did the same thing with Illinois Keno AP story. First he said they were guilty, then when that was debunked he said “I never said that I was just saying that they acted guilty” then when that was debunked he said “Well even if they weren’t guilty in that it’s OK if they were arrested because they were probably guilty of some other scam at some point that they never got caught for because the damn liberal judges let everyone whose guilty walk on a technicality”

    Now if he responds to this which I am not going to bother responding back to him he will say “I went through all my posts and I never said anything of the sort! Typical liberal making up quotes” Then if I spent 2 hours finding and posting his verbatim quotes (not gonna waste the time) He would come back and say “Ok you got me, but that’s not really what I meant I was speaking into the phone while driving and it slightly misinterpreted what I meant to say!”

    LMAO!

    One more thing I’d like to mention. Bosox has said one reason he looks up to me is because I’m so consistent. He actually made a post on another forum complimenting me on my consistencies. He said it doesn’t matter what handle I use, I’m always very consistent.

    So Bosox, please come to my rescue here. Explain to some of these goofballs how consistent my views are. And tell them to quite playing your game of “gotcha”. Lol

    DeGenBen, I’ll ask you the same question I asked big Bobo and little Bobo. Why do governments approve casinos? That is the crux of our debate.

    I beleive it’s for the interest of state and local governments...they want the revenue that comes from casinos. I don’t want to speak for you but it appears you believe governments greenlight casinos only for casino’s interest. Basically, you believe our government only cares about making the casino “fat cats” wealthy.

    Instead of critizing others and playing the “gotcha” game on some meaningless point, could you please let me know why self-governing governments, like ours, approve casinos?

    I’m betting you don’t answer this question. Because if you do, you’ll probably align with me.

    Hey DeGenBen, I just reread your “gocha” post and wanted to know when all this stuff was “debunked”? These guys just filed their second lawsuit against the casinos. We have no idea how it’ll go. The casinos might pay them off to make it go away or they might take it to court. Even if it goes to court and they win, that doesn’t prove either side is innocent or guilty. It just proves one of the parties won the case.

    Only God and the people involved in this scam will ever know what really happened.

    I like the way you guys say this or that was “debunked” just because two or three of you believe the same thing. You have a very low standard when it comes to “debunking”. Lol. By the way, that’s a fitting word for how you view legal cases.

    It’s been over five hours, and neither tableplay or DGenBen have answered my question on why casinos exist. It’s probably because they agree with me and they’re too embarrassed to admit it.

    Hey, I understand why APs don’t want to face reality on why casinos exists. What AP wants to say: “I undermine state and local economies by legally attacking their voluntary tax centers”. This doesn’t sound very romantic.

    Thus, they paint the casinos as these horrible evil entities that somehow popped up without any government involvement. In their scenario, the AP is a white knight in shinning armor taking on the big bad dragon (think casinos) who are exploiting the poor and vulnerable. The problem is when most APs extract money from a casino, they keep it all to themselves and won’t even share some with dealers who are held captive by casinos making below minimum wage. Btw, does this sound like what a white knight would do?

    Hey, I’m an AP and I enjoy it, but that doesn’t mean I have a distorted view of casinos and why they exists. I get it. They exist for entertainment and to generate revenue for local and state governments. A byproduct is some casino people also get wealthy, and other bad things happen outside the control of casinos, like crime, divorce and bankruptcies increase.

    Look, when I retire I’ll probably become a full-time AP. Sometime in the future, I’d like to take a trip down to Reno and hang out with Moses and Tater playing single deck bj, learning more about the column count, and hanging out in the sports books. I think Moses and I would have a good time. We have the same warped sense of humor, we enjoy sports, we’re from the Midwest, we went to small NAIA colleges, and we’re religious. And neither one of us have distorted view of casinos. We also don’t have distorted views of APs. And I think we both believe in tipping (basically, sharing some of our winnings with people less fortunate than us).

    Tableplay and DGenBen, no need to answer my question. Your silence spoke volumns. You can go back to playing “forum detective” and find some little meaningless inconsistencies in my posts. Get with Bobo on this. He likes to play this game too. Lol.

    Blob, please do not say tableplay was wrong when he was only quoting what you said to start with. Repeating again what you wrote for the first time in your own post #1 in your own thread titled Casino Mission:


    "The casinos primary purpose is to generate revenue for state and local government’s."

    Now you are changing the wording to read:

    It is so very easy to see Blob that you are now trying a fast one when in fact what you first said was not true. Comparing the purpose of casinos "apples" and the purpose of the Government "Oranges" completely separate endeavors. So tableplay was right on the money pertaining to you!

    You’re wrong tableplay. Governments approve casinos for the PRIMARY purpose of raising revenue for the state and local governments. All governments understand the downside of casinos but they’re willing to live with these downsides because of the revenues casinos bring into the government.

    Just like our government does with defense contracts, our government contracts out casinos to private business. Of course the private businesses who run casinos are going to try to make as much profit as they can. The same is true for defense contractors that are private businesses.

    Hey tableplay do some research on this and don’t just drink the Kool-Aid of what other APs have told you. Nevada legalized casinos to raise revenue to build Hoover Dam. New Jersey also legalized casinos in Atlantic city to raise revenue.

    Every state and local government that has approved casinos has done it to raise revenue for state and local governments. A byproduct of casinos is the industries and people who run casinos also become wealthy.

    I’m surprised how many APs don’t understand this. They think govenrments legalize casinos to make fat cat casino operators wealthy. APs have no understanding of how our government works. Probably because they spend too much time in a casino. Lol
    Blob, please do not say tableplay was wrong when he was only quoting what you said to start with. Repeating again what you wrote for the first time in your own post #1 in your own thread titled Casino Mission:


    "The casinos primary purpose is to generate revenue for state and local government’s."

    Now you are changing the wording to read:


    " Governments approve casinos for the PRIMARY purpose of raising revenue for the state and local governments."


    It is so very easy to see Blob that you are now trying a fast one when in fact what you first said was not true. Comparing the purpose of casinos "apples" and the purpose of the Government "Oranges" completely separate endeavors. So tableplay was right on the money pertaining to you!
    You caught me on a technicality. That’s why we call you “Bobo, the forum defective”. Good job Bobo!

    By the way, both statements are saying the same thing. There is no inconsistency. This is a forum where we express our views. This isn’t a legal briefing where we have some lawyer parsing every sentence we write to try to catch some inconsistency.

    And by the way Bobo, what would you do if I didn’t have some minor inconsistency in my post. You’d get bored playing “forum detective”. I actually do this on purpose to give you something to do. I know you live on these forums. Think of my little inconsistencies as “Easter eggs” for you to find. You’re welcome. No need to thank me.

    It looks like you have two protégés who want to play “forum detective” with you. You need to make sure you stay at the top of your game, otherwise tableplay or DGenBen might pass you up. They are getting good at this game.

    The good news is I have a lot of people going through my posts with a fine tooth comb trying to find something to nail me on. It means they actually might learn something, if they’re able to have an open mind.

    Hey Bobo, I’ve read those two statements now multiple times. They are saying the same thing. Casinos are approved by governments to generate revenue for governments. In the case of casinos, it’s for local and state governments. You can say this multiple ways.

    A casinos PRIMARY purpose is to generate revenue for state and local governments...that’s why govenrments approve them. It’s that simple!

    Do you really think governments, which are self ruling, are approving casinos for the purpose of making “fat cat” casino people wealthy and to exploit the poor and vulnerable? Why would a government do that? We are the government.

    I’m struggling with the point you’re trying to make.

    Keep struggling to figure it out BLOB. Now you are the defective detective.
