Gameing saves the day
Legalized gameing offers small towns in poor states economic hope, as shown by a destitute Mississippi community. The Mississippi River Cotton community owes its regeneration to legalized gameing, and according to Mayor Betty Burch, its effect is 'overwhelming'. Gameing revenue has allowed these small communities to thrive once again, stimulating job growth and development, impacting on the towns' entire economies as casinos employ youngsters who would otherwise be unemployed, and drive revenue to other concerns.
Gameing taxes in these states provide the cash to improve and initiate developments-creating a positive growth cycle, proving that responsible, legislated gameing isn't destructive.
