Just Say No Casino, the group opposed to a Cedar Rapids casino
Vote Yes Linn County, the pro-casino campaign
One has to wonder if the investors of this casino did any research and exactly who these investors are! After doing my own research I found the casino that Mr. Gray would like to emulate is losing money.
“Gray also singled out the Rivers Casino, a downtown casino in Pittsburgh, Pa., adding that he envisioned that a Cedar Rapids casino will be “”urban, metro and upscale” not unlike the Pittsburgh one.”
“Ira Schulman is one unhappy property owner. A principal in the ownership of Rivers Casino, he has dubbed the North Shore gambling palace a “bad investment,” claiming it has lost $200 million in equity since it opened in August 2009.” Read more: http://www.post-gazette.com/stories/business/news/key-owner-says-rivers-casino-is-terrible-investment-633146/#ixzz2Ij9KULYs

This design is spectacular! You obviously know how to keep a reader
entertained. Between your wit and your videos,
I was almost moved to start my own blog (well, almost…HaHa!) Great job.
I really enjoyed what you had to say, and more than that, how you presented it.
Too cool!

You’ve made some decent points there. I looked on the web to find out more about
the issue and found most individuals will go
along with your views on this website.

Cedar Rapids needs a casino and Riverside needs some competition. Riverside does not pay out anyway so why should people go there?
February 16th, 2013 at 9:42 am
I voted in favor of the last casino. The more I learn about the investors the less likely I will be to do that this time. Sorry.

Will smoking be allowed in the CR casino if approved/built?
If so, how does this square with the Governor’s “Healthiest State” initiative and the recent designation of CR as a “Blue Zone” city?
My vote will largely depend on the answer to this question.

I have no idea but imagine they won’t allow smokiing
February 1st, 2013 at 9:35 am
Wow, if you are correct, I believe that would make the CR casino the only one in the state where I could not smoke. Can’t imagine that, but maybe you are correct.
February 1st, 2013 at 9:54 am
I don’t trust the investors.

Reblogged this on Cedar Rapids Activist and commented:
Vote in the poll! Will you vote for the Casino? Will you vote yes or no?
January 23rd, 2013 at 12:38 pm
Great Research! I was leaning a little to the ‘yes’ side for the vote but admittedly haven’t done much research yet. I’ll dig a little deeper and reconsider.
January 23rd, 2013 at 12:45 pm
I was leaning towards voting yes too but after doing some digging I don’t know if I will.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4yef-MJlyEc The casino Mr. Gray would like to emulate has done nothing but lose money! We could learn from their failures or fail right along with them!
