I'm with you. I went with my wife's company a couple of years ago to the Casino north of your and my location (without giving the name). I was very depressed to see the number of seniors there, who I can imagine couldn't really afford it. The food was good and cheap, which is one of the hooks. To see so many sitting for hours in front of those (as my father called them) "One Armed Bandits" was depressing. I do know a few around here who go regularly, and they in all seriousness can not afford it, and always are practically BEGGING each month due to there SPENDING. I think people should treat them like entertainment centers. Take say 50.00 (what you'd spend for an evening out) and play with that. Once it's gone, you go home. If you win, take the 50.00 out and play with the rest if you wish, but then your playing with THERE money. But it's too much temptation for many especially if they win some money once. I personally just don't see the justification to put more casino's in this province or anywhere for that matter.
