I have lived in Hawaii for more than 40 years and just booked a “staycation” three-night trip to Maui from Honolulu to watch my grandson’s ball games. Imagine my shock when the costs were more than $2,500 for two retired adults at a hotel in Kahului.
I can go to Las Vegas for much less and put my extra money in a slot machine to support Nevada schools.
Get real. Local gambling means money for Hawaii keiki education. No to guns and marijuana.
Live aloha.
