I have been working for months with a game plan I have mega websites that are allready generating income for me Middleborotaxi.com,Middleborcasino.com,limos.limo etc! I have gotten taxi work from lakeville station people google middleborotaxi on there phones Im number 1 I get the work some one in Middleboro with a little vision and drive can do awsome.

Traffic Hmmm! I dont believe it, I dont think theres going to be any, This is not the patriots game on Sunday, The stuff you read in the papers is scare tactics I belive in fact I have 150 or more trips to CT and RI I have the experience Honest to god I never waited in traffic to get in or out so I dont see where this is coming from.

Do you really think there are that many people who gamble Sun-Thurs the antis and surrounding towns that want mitigation money will want you to believe this there will be no more than whats out there now. The Cape, I think Businesses from the Cape should pay mitigation money to surrounding towns for the traffic they generate.

All in all I see good, addictions yea maybe, but if your addicted to gambling there is stuff all around us right now to play most addicts want a quick fix like scratch tickets in the stores
As far as restaurants, etc.....check out route 2 in Ct. There are very few restaurants in close proximity to the Casino's. In fact, I can only think of 1 within 5 miles of Foxwoods. My company owns 3 businesses in Preston and Stonington and I have seen local restaurants go out of business. People who work at the casino's eat at work, and the patrons of the casino are not going to leave to get dinner or lunch. As for traffic, my concern is the weekend traffic during the summer. Route 395 in CT gets pretty busy during the summer because that is when people go to the casinos. On 495, you combine the casino traffic during the summer with the Cape traffic (which can already be bad) and you are asking for problems. Again, I don't care if people want to gamble or drink or God forbid, have fun at a casino. I just don't want to have to deal with the residual effects of it on my life. And if Middleboro wants to become more financially sound, they need to fire the finance people that are in place and hire somone who knows how to manage money.
