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.
