In one of the country’s most concentrated casino markets, 38 percent of Free State voters said the expansion of casino gambling has been a “bad thing” in a new Washington Post-University of Maryland poll. That’s up 11 points from a 2012 poll, when 27 percent of respondents felt negatively toward the state’s addition of slots casinos.
The growing disapproval comes as the $925 million MGM National Harbor prepares to open next year in Prince George’s County.

Prediction: MGM National Harbor will go bankrupt within 8 years of opening. 2 other of the Md. Casinos will close in less than 7 years.
The State doesn't care about the deleterious effects of gambling (they imprison, still today, citizens who "run numbers", but when THEY run numbers, its okay??).
All they want to know is how much money can they get their hands on, from the contracts and subcontracts, to the bribes and "favors", all the way to the tax check and vice revenue.
I keep telling you -- it does not matter if it's republicans or democrats running the show; the result is the same.
Check out the impact "your guy" has by looking at his VOTING RECORD. NOT what he says (whatever you want to hear, by the way).
Put a towel over your mouth to stifle the scream.....
Build one in every town. Let the voters make the choice if they want to play.
Just create a law defining how much of a citizon's income MUST go to gambling. If they get laid off, tax their unemployment Benifit. How hard is this?
