Do you think state-owned casinos are a good idea?

Asked at Massachusetts Street on December 18, 2009

“Absolutely not. I don’t think the state needs to get into that. We don’t need the gambling.”

“I think it’s a very bad idea. I’ve seen some communities in Colorado that have started casinos and gambling, and the whole character has changed.”

“Sure, why not? People are going to gamble anyway.”

“Yes, why not? I’m newly 21 and I experienced my first (casino) last month.”
