"The Myths About Legal Gambling"
Advocacy groups promote their agendas, while this writer presents both pros and cons of gambling...
After presenting some facts, Steve Chapman came to this conclusion about gambling in his posting at Townhall.com:
"In the end, permitting more gambling is a good thing because it accommodates the desires of ordinary people. Millions of Americans happily patronize casinos and racetracks each year, and there is no good reason for governments to stand in their way.
But anyone who expects a major impact, good or bad, from the proposed expansion is going to be surprised. This measure is not the equivalent of betting the house. It's dollar-ante poker."
