I have serious doubts that such a casino would be a success. I'm a non-smoker but most of these places are so well ventilated that it doesn't really bother me.

Thank you!! Exactly!!!

The problem that I see here is that if this is forced upon the casino by the government and the casino subsequently fails, the government will never admit that their actions ended up causing the failure.

Like I said: the Maine Government continually rubs our noses into the stink THEY make!

That, in a nutshell, is what governments do.

Let's face the fact that everything that is really a crime has been legislated against long ago. Now in order to justify themselves, government at all levels has to continually split hairs finer and finer, laying new levels of law and regulation on us.

To me, the classic example of our goobermint springing into action to save us from calamity and chaos is this damn Do Not Call list.

Imagine people so stupid and desperate to be saved and led to the promised land, people so berift of imagination that they can't shake a simple phone call.

These are the folks who need saving from SHS, from Big Scarey Trucks, from SUVs, from cell phones.

Feckless sheep begging to be sheared and not caring one whit if we get sheared right along with them, in fact insisting that we line up with them.

I hate them.

oops! Hate speech, something else we need to be saved from.
