All they do is generate enough income to keep people in jobs but no extra for the children.

Low paying jobs so the employees have to get welfare benefits to make ends meet. The only ones benefiting by the casinos are the operators. The tax payers are again footing the bills for their employees while they make a fat pay check.

When Ocean Downs Casino first opened there was a $600,000 winner and has not been one since, but, as shows here, just in June they took in $6 million dollars with no big winners, and every month they take in millions. It seems odd to me that there has never been another big winner since it opened.
