With all of the money these places rake in---and they rake in hundreds of millions a year--do you really think that they don't have every state gaming commissioner in the country in their pocket?
Here's how much cash casinos have. One time when I was in Atlantic City, I walked into the Trump casino that was back on the bay--not the one on the Boardwalk. Right inside the door, there was a 20' high Lexan cylinder, a foot in diameter, filled top to bottom with real $100 bills. If you guessed the total in there you won some kind of prize (unfortunately, NOT all the money in there). I told my ex--this is a business that can afford to tie up how many millions that were in that cylinder---cash--as an advertising prop and that if she had any sense we'd turn right around and leave.
Being that she's my ex--of course she didn't have the sense to leave
