English Harbor

**SPADEAHOLIC** · 15th July 2011, 06:20 PM

I am posting this here because I feel my government caused what I see now is official that English Harbor is closing as of August 1st, and the oh so mighty US in my opinion is the reason.
Billions of dollars are spent on state lottery's and we voted for them, to help schools. Yet our teachers are still under paid and schools are closing left and right Were is all that money going?

It really pisses me off that my government keeps wanting to tell me what I can and can not do with my life. It's my freakin money I'll spend it any gawd darn way I want to.

Anyways thank you for letting me vent.

Hey SPADEAHOLIC nice to see ya. Sorry you're so bummed and burned by all this crap as most of us Americans here are. I for one and I'm sure there are plenty others who have been doing everything we know of to let Washington know how we feel about it and I mean I've called, faxed, emailed, written letters, donated and honestly it felt most of the time like no one was listening or even gave a damn. Then in one fell swoop the s.o.b.'s do a slam dunk and we're all but done. Meanwhile, as a final flip off to players, they allow online gambling in D.C. Isn't that nice for them.

Although I've never played there myself (and so I'm unaffected), I still feel compelled to say that it is really really sad isn't it?

How many more will go down?

Thanks - hardly the type of corporate public announcement one would expect from such a long-established group

With the UK site apparently still in full operation this is clearly another casualty of the US situation as opposed to a full corporate shutdown; I'm surprised that EH would not want to make that publicly clear.
