Slow Saturday Special: Panel Says New Hampshire Should Host Casinos

I can't imagine why you would want them after what we have been through down here:

"Panel votes to back casino in New Hampshire" by Norma Love |  Associated Press, December 07, 2013

CONCORD, N.H. — Attorney General Joseph Foster praised the panel’s work to include strong regulations for the casino, but voted against the proposal. Foster said his office will fight the bill when lawmakers consider it next year. He said he recognizes that charities benefit from games of chance in New Hampshire, but legalizing a commercial casino would foster more social costs.

‘‘We’re going from little leagues to big leagues in terms of the dollar cost of problem gamblers,’’ Foster said.

The panel was created after the House killed a casino bill that passed the Senate with strong backing from Governor Maggie Hassan....

She also turned down Medicaid. That's some Democrat, huh?

--more--"

They recommended what was in the bill that was "killed," huh? 

What is it about the word NO that they do not under$tand?
