Tell our corrupt legislature NOT to massively increase the tax hike on DraftKings, FanDuel, etc.

Here’s the official petition: https://sportsbettingalliance.org/take-action/louisiana/

Is this the usual Louisiana deal where some guy sponsors a bill to protect family values, while also owning a chain of gas station slots casinos?

Y’all do know sports betting only exists to take bettor’s money, right?

Quit betting and this tax increase won’t cost you a dime.

All the bonuses and promotions are tax deductible so that goes to draftkings & ect pocket not the state.
There is no way sports betting is going away so they can either juice the lines or stick w/ status quo.
I like gambling, but I'd rather have to pay more on a luxury then a necessity.

Why would you shill for those terrible companies? Of course sports betting should be legal. And these companies should get taxed

Do you think Jack Daniels exists because it’s a healthy drink that’s good for you ? Maybe don’t judge vices of others when your username is a nod to cheap, shitty whiskey?

Pretty sure this won't effect the fat guy I've been booking with for the last 2 decades.

If I thought that the tax money would be used efficiently for useful things, I would have no problem with this passing. We all know that it won’t. Lose/lose proposition.

I can tell you firsthand, the problems with our schools have nothing to do with money.
