Title: Austintown Racino
Post by: irishbobcat on June 15, 2012, 07:57:12 AM
I wonder if the Austintown Schools will be receiving any extra money so they won't have to put private school
students on WRTA busses for their daily stop-over at Federal Station downtown?

I never, ever, trust when they tell you the revenue will help the schools. BS.
When the lottery was first proposed in Florida many years back, it was to help the schools.

Build new schools, they said. Hire more teachers, they said.
Repair current school buildings, they said.

HA!  The schools never saw a dime of that lottery revenue, to this day.
