But of course,the casino was to give political cronies high paying jobs at the taxpayers expense not make a profit!

Well no kidding! They had high expectations of Ocean City vacationers spending money at the slots but that ain't happening and it should not come as any surprise.
Casinos, like outlet shopping centers and Walmart are a dime a dozen. Almost everyone lives within a hour of one, so it's not a novelty to most.
