I'm neither for or against the casino in Middleboro, but it doesn't actually create 7,000 jobs. It provides work for the people who build it, then takes the employees who work for other local companies and hires them for positions at the casino. There are very few unemployed workers who would get jobs at a casino. Most of the unemployed people in Massachusetts choose not to work, or are not employable for one reason or another. The people who get hired will be employed persons who come from other local businesses. That means that the local business owners will either have to hire the dregs of humanity, or run short-handed. This will hurt consumers who live in the area, because the already below average customer service they receive will only get worse. Has anyone tried to get help at big home improvement stores recently? Good luck finding someone to help, and better luck finding someone who knows anything. I have no dog in this fight, so I don't really care whether it is built or not. In fact, I would probably go once a year. But I do like being able to travel down 495 to the Cape late at night without having to watch out for a bunch of drunk drivers.
