View from the kitchen

I am just now voting: at my kitchen table.

As far as harness racing is concerned, it will either live or die, on its own. I don’t think that slots will make any difference. The powers that have influence have just used harness racing as an excuse to get the slots in Bangor. So why not allow our early Americans the opportunity to do the same in the poorest county in the U.S.?

Thrifty people and economists will tell individuals not to spend any more than they earn. I believe the state of Maine should do the same thing.

We simply cannot borrow ourselves out of debt.

As for me, I am voting yes on one, and no on the other four.
