I find it amusing that Rep. Osmond, Suzie Schmidt and the Lake County Board, Mark Kirk, Susan Garrett and many others opposed the Dairy Land Casino in Kenosha. They held hearings and sent letters of opposition. Some of their listed concerns were a bigger strain on our social resources, traffic, lost entertainment $$ revenue and the big one was that the developers promised to hire local residents then expand out to Wisconsin residents from around the state ignoring Illinois. Funny how they are all quiet on this one.
