The state of RI should expend its energy to attract corporations (high technology, bio-medical, financing, etc.) to the state at these proposed casino locations which will create thousands of jobs. Future generations can then look forward to a career as oppose to a casino employee.

Father: "Son, what do you want to be when you grow up."

Son: "I want to work at the casino just like you"

The future would be bleak for the children that have the potential to go to college or a business career if the easy way is working at a casino.

Also, if MA gets a casino then the only money generated would be from the gambling losers of RI. The people from CT would go to CT and the MA people will go to MA depending on the location if it does happen and especially if they have to pay less tax on their winnings
