Can you even begin to understand that you the one who works your butt off pays for others to take their FREE $$$$$$$$$ they got from you to the casino?

That we even had to ask the casinos in the first place to STOP cashing welfare $$$$$$$???

That it isn't a CRIME to spend FREE TAX WELFARE $$$$$$$$$ at the casino in the first place?

These are the same casinos who don't pay gas tax. Sales tax.
We as a state due to criminals in office who set those sweet deals up years ago miss out on hundreds of MILLIONS of tax $$$$$$$$$$ then the casinos have the GREED to cash welfare EBT cards?

Just unreal.

When it comes to our government just keep the money flowing with no stewardship because the working man will always keep paying for their actions.

Had enough yet?
Well ......... have you?



BTW. Two casinos will continue to cash the cards.

OLYMPIA, Wash. - Tribal casinos in Washington will no longer cash welfare cards under an agreement with the state Gambling Commission.

The commission said Tuesday that 27 of the 29 federally recognized tribes in the state have agreed to amend gambling agreements to ensure that all cash dispensing and point-of-sale machines refuse electronic benefits transfer (EBT) cards.

The state-issued EBT cards, also known as a "Quest Card," are intended to help the needy purchase food items at grocery stores.

The agreement is one of several the commission is recommending to the Legislature.
