Jones Supports Slot Machines

Nathaniel Jones is a retired federal judge, but that doesn’t mean he has any less clout or pull. He has decided to come out in favor of the slot machine measure that is up for voting this November. He thinks that bringing slot machines to the state of Ohio is one of the best ideas he has heard yet.

Jones has appeared in several TV ads across Ohio urging voters to approve the slot machine measure, and thinks that the slot machines are a great way to improve education for the students of their state. Jones said that he thought the slot machines were “a means of providing a funding source for scholarships for Ohio children.”

Jones thinks the funding from the slot machines could be a way to battle high school drop out rates. He thinks that if slot machine revenue can be used to fund scholarships then the slot machines are actually giving children hope for a better future. He does not know what to think about expanded gambling, but thinks the slot machines are worth it. He knows that funding is needed in the state to help with the high rising costs of a college education, and it seems that the slot machines and the slot machine revenue would be the perfect way to do that.

"Gambling is here," Jones said. "I'm not one who is in any position of doing anything about the mentality that supports gambling. I do have an overriding concern for providing resources for young people to achieve the highest level of education."
