I need someone to explain the plus and minus's of having a Casino.As I understand, If it's in the school district it would better be for the schools. In general it looks like a casino would be conducive to a better Waukeagn but I certainly would not view it like they did the Genesee ... as a single panacea destined to be the savior of an entire city. If it happens count it as a bonus but don't sacrafice much time, money and energy (almost forgot choice real estate) to get it. I'm sure there is a nasty hidden underside to a casino that I'm not aware of. I think I'm already getting tired of this running for mayor stuff. I'm retired and enjoying it. Maybe I don't need to be saving a city I love.
