“The problem is the revenue on the machines usually pay for those machines; it is not extra revenue,” he said.
He also said when the TouchPlay machines were first released, a limit was placed on the number of licenses that a person could obtain. Each machine is required to have a license and without this no additional machines can be purchased. Though Cramer was able to purchase a few additional licenses, he said it is still becoming more difficult to pay for the lost machines.

“Last summer the bank let me just pay on the interest, and I might have to do the same thing this summer,” he said.
Cramer said he will be glad when the trial is over; he’s hoping that a settlement between business operators and the state could be reached.
“It would be nice if the state would come to us and we could just settle something before next April,” he said.
