Gambling Our Way To Prosperity

Some days my local fishwrap is inexplicably a PR arm of Atlantic City gambling interests.

Of course AC is pretty much a cautionary tale for the joys of gambling. Decades of people throwing their money into the fire pit there and it's still a pretty horrible place. And it could be quite a nice place, even with the casinos, as it has a pretty decent by Jersey standards beach and boardwalk. But they're doing it wrong.
