Plenty of room for big corps. in the state, but getting them here ain't gonna happen without a major tax reform, which both houses of the legislature oppose. MA won't build a casino if we do it first. The market studies show that the area can only support three casinos and no one in their right mind is going to put up the capital to build a fourth. The casinos compete on more than just distance. For example, many people drive right by Foxwoods to get to Mohegan Sun.
