Limo Looza!! You should save that video Mike. Someday you can look back and have a big chuckle .

Do movie theaters , performing arts , speakers at fishing gatherings , etc do any different than a casino? They all provide entertainment from my point of view.

I am very familiar with statistics and probability so I seldom gamble but once every 3 or 4 years , i like to go and see a concert and play a little blackjack , pig out at the buffet , etc until my budget (usually $200) runs out.

I understand many have a gambling problem. We many also buy golf clubs and fishing gear and booze . Nobody is trying to ban that kind of bsuiness to protect people from themselves. Why should the casino be any different?

Anyway , like most other "sin" activities , I think people should have to protect themselves from excess. I think it should be like any other business in fact. Other than the same taxes a cleaner business or gas station must pay , I don't even think the state should get a cut and I don't think the people who want to open these businesses should be impaired by the state governments.

One thing I think should be illegal if the state is going to get involved is the availability of loans at the casino. If you didn't carry it in as cash when you got there , you need to stop gambling when you run out. No loans , liens on cars , boats or houses , etc.

Anyway , I'm glad the Limo Looza can laugh about his nickname.
