I’m a NO CASINO kind of girl.

I’m totally pissed off about Ed Ren­dell and his whole push to have casi­nos as a way to cre­ate rev­enue. Sup­port­ing small busi­ness and the arts in Philly and Penn­syl­va­nia would be bet­ter. How many casi­nos do they have in Man­hat­tan? Peo­ple go into the casi­nos and never come back out. They don’t shop, go to restau­rants for lunch of din­ner. The Casi­nos get vis­i­tors to come in and make sure they stay there. Look at the ter­rific growth that Atlantic City has had since the casinos.

What is Ed think­ing. Please Mayor Nut­ter kick his butt.
