Excellent Review of Economics of Gambling,
By Susan S. Paddock "consultant, author, counselor" (Gettysburg, Pa USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Gambling in America: Costs and Benefits (Hardcover)
We used this book to help fight off a casino planned for our small town, and we won. Grinols is an economist and the expert on casino economics. He points out that for every $1 that comes into the area from a casino, $3 goes out in unforseen economic costs. Casinos are not sustainable economic development. They are a regressive tax, have very high social costs, and as Warren Buffett said, "government shouldn't be in the business of making losers of its citizens".
