Katrina-like

The Doctor says Ohio’s economy and job losses are a " Katrina-like catastrophe." What the fix? An Ohio casino. A 600 million dollar solution to create 5000 permanent jobs (that’s $120,000 per job by the math). We need to share the wealth because already 38 states have casino gambling income. All proceeds would be distributed to Ohio counties, Columbus alone benefitting from 20 million. Information on the project can be found on MyOhioNow. com. The Constitutional amendment to allow this enterprise will be on the November ballot, 2008. What do you think? What do I think? It’s all about choice, says Dr. Laura. Americans choose to take a chance on education by gambling in the lottery, to waste money on fancy pain relievers when aspirin will do, to believe that any commercial skin creams will remove wrinkles or diet pills will melt fat, to buy bottled water with anti-oxidants to improve health and to purchase locking fuel caps because someone might steal high-priced gas. Americans’ choices are crazy already; I say go for it. Choose the casino.
