[QUOTE="Cohiba, post: 2386025, member: 2550"] I love watching the poor and homeless in Vegas, especially in the downtown/Fremont area. I'll be playing "single" deck..3:2, blqckjack early in the morning. The homelss guy will beg for a few hours and walk right in the casino and start to "game". My wife made a comment one time about that. I told her, what does he have to lose...a house, wife and family? If he hits it big...good for him. If he doesn't, just another day. As for welfare being used to gamble/game...I really don't care how they spend their money...I know, don't flame me...tax payer money. Trust me, the retired folks do it on their pensions and retirement. If I had a nickel for every time (when I was in the restroom) I heard someone crying about spending all the rent, payments, grocery money...I'd be a millionaire. Not just the poor gamble their NEEDED money away. As for legislation ruling our lives. .it's not the first time and its not the last. Look at what happened to the three wheeler atv, tobacco, popbottle rockets, streetsweeper shotguns (I'm waiting for the Saiga shotgun to be regulated..hell, it's 5x faster then the old streesweeper and the mags and drums hold more rounds)..where do I stop? What gets me is those facial recognition cameras the casinos use. So what if my wife was asked by a manager and security to leave because she was winning at blackjack. How dare they offer double and single deck, ask her to leave and ban her for 6 months...then enforce it when she enters their establishment only to have dinner..dinner I say...two months later, the nerve!!! Then they share that info with other casinos...how rude!!! :wink2: [/QUOTE]
