re: Gambling and receipt of government assistance

Would you be in favor of casinos being required to scan the license of any person entering to see if they receive government assistance (food stamps, medicaid, SSI, WIC etc.)?

I'd like to see a law preventing those from receiving government assistance from spending the money received from the rest of us at the slot machine. I'd also be in favor of turning away anyone that has an outstanding child support obligation.

Then you may as well put an end to state lotteries.

The lottery is a state tax on poor people....and stupid people.
