    Californians get a chance in next month's election to vote YES or
    NO on two Gambling Expansion Propositions, Prop 26 and Prop 27,
    with Gambling Industry advocates urging a Yes vote on one or both, promising to expand their Predatory Industry with Sports Betting, OnlineGambling, Craps, etc.

    It's not usual that we get a chance to have a Direct Vote onVice,
    as issues of Public Morality are typically arrogated by Officials
    and Out Of State Corporations, presenting Vice as a Fait Accompli.

    In the spirit of Bi-Partisanship I'll vote with the Republicans on
    Prop 26 and the Democrats on Prop 27 for a NO vote on both.

    I'm voting YES on the one that gives anyone the chance to run an online gambling business and NO on the one that would only allow the Indian
    tribes to run an online gambling business.

    Don't like the Bi-Partisanship? Well, I'm also Voting the Republican
    way on these Props, the anti-Capitalist way, the anti-Corporate way,
    the Pro-Indian way (the ones that don't like the Gambling Industry) and
    the anti-Monopoly way by voting NO on both. Voting against these Props
    also serves as a move against Drugs. Drug Advocates, the Immigration
    Lobby, the demands to Legalize Prostitution, the Alcohol Industry, and
    the Gambling Industry all flock together, so Voting against one is
    Voting against all. I'm also Voting against The Man On TV who says
    that Legalization Is The Only Solution. All in a Positive Vein, of
    course.

    If only Gambling itself were on the ballot!

    Yes, it would be nice to be able to tell the government to but out and
    let people play roulette or poker if they want to.

    When Gambling Was Unregulated, when was that, and was it ever anything
    but a Scam?

    I'm for making Gambling Illegal In California, like it was before the disastrous State Lottery served as an initiating Domino for the
    Gambling Racket.

    Gambling is a Crooked Industry, whether Legal or not; reading Mike
    Lindell's book What Are The Odds? helps convince me of that, despite
    all the glorification of Gambling in it.

    Yes, it would be nice to be able to tell the government to butt out and
    let people play roulette or poker if they want to.

    I simply don't believe it's any of the government's business to be
    policing our morals. You don't believe in gambling, fine. Don't gamble.
    But don't presume to tell me-- through the use of government force--
    that I can't. It's my money, I should be able to do with it what I want.
