Policy made big bucks, this BS not so much. The suckers are the taxpayers.

...nor will tourists be eager to book a room at a casino’s hotel is there are no other easily accessed attractions nearby,

Well, hotels could build balconies for the tourists to witness, first-hand, all the shootings going on around Chicago. Action packed tourist attraction, unlike any other in the world.

If you want to gamble in Chicago, just walk down the street and try not to get shot.

Leave it to DemocRATS to screw something like this up to the point where no sane investor would even consider it.

They can put cameras all through the south side and have a giant room for Betting on the Shootings, hell they can take Online Betting too!!

‘onerous’ taxes
Make that 'onerous' shakedowns on top of the taxes.

Just like kids complaining there’s nothing to do...you gotta work with what you got. Put some helmets and kevlar on ‘em and send ‘em out for a few rounds of Honkies vs. The Hood.

So because government can figure out how to make money on it the residents do without the jobs and the economy.

Is this supposed to be fund the government of the government working for us?

No one is willing to take a “shot”.

[PGR88]

Anyone also notice how Government is now controlling all the best vice rackets? First cigarettes, then marijuana and casinos - I’m guessing prostitution is next.

That’s what happens when you are bankrupt and organized like the mafia.

I don’t know. Chicago could imitate the resorts in Jamaica. Have a bus meet the tourists/gamblers at the airport, Drive them to the walled, heavily-guarded resort/hotel/casino. Offer guarded trips from the resort to selected tourist attractions. At the end of their stay, they take the bus back to the airport. Because of the money involved, have CPD escort the bus to avoid incidents. Don’t know how this would help with the taxes though.

As an aside, I’ve always been curious about the phrase “a few pennies on the dollar” (or “just pennies on the dollar”).

Is that 2 or more “pennies on the dollar”, or 97 or more “pennies on the dollar” ?
