First post of March! Got to make it epic! How about we visit a familiar topic: Casinos in Michigan.
Building one in Lansing? The capital of the Dead Auto Industry? Sure! But building 22?! In the lower part of Michigan? I'm not sure I can support this.
This article in the Detroit Free Press says there's a plan to build 22 new casinos in Michigan. One in Oakland, Wayne, and Macomb and more counties. One in dead pan Flint (no offense)... plenty all over! -_- Not a good idea.
Yes, it would bring tons of employment and wealth to the Native Americans and their reservations and tribes..but can we try to keep in mind that gambling happens at casinos? And as much as gambling can be a fun venture.. gambling is associated with addiction and greed and all that stuff. This may be a personal opinion of mine, but I think putting 22 new casinos is a horrible idea.
Why must we be the new Las Vegas of the Midwest? We're the autoindustry state, not the new Sin City! What happens in Vegas, should stay in Vegas. All of it.
Yay or Nay for gambling?
