Glad to see one of our reguiars won, What a crowd! | counted 500 peo- ple. That brings in $5,000 a night. Charity bingo sure brings in a lot of money. We should have énough to build that new teen centre,” The day alter Bingo Night, the director of the new teen centre was preparing the receipts for deposit, when his assistant rushed in. “Bert, we're in deep trouble, read this letter from the government.” BASED ON ACTUAL COURT CASES a Bert glanced quickly down the page and let out a howl so loud that the entire staff of the charity rushed into his office. “The government Is too greedy for its own good, Ii's changed the regulations to increase its cut of the money Binga Night brings In. That's going to leave vary little to cover the teen centre. C'mon guys, we're going to take the government to court." Distraught, the Bingo Hall told the court, “Your Honour, this Isn't fair, The government is trying to turn charity bingo into a cash cow. They're getting a 2000% increase in profit. Now the charities are getting next to nothing. We need the bingo money to run our organization. The government doesn't nead any more money. Deciara this new regulation iflagal,” The government just laughed, “Your Honour, the regulation is perfectly legal. We can regu- late non-profit bingo and we did, Charity bingo | makes alot of money. itis time that we ‘ecoup the cost of regulation. They don't need all the money thay make. They are just bitter because we are faking a slice of ihe pie. The Bingo Halt just doesn’t want to share,” Should to government be antitlad to a cut of the profits? You!
