Re: B.C. gambling addicts get go ahead to sue lottery said by DKS:And can anyone explain to me why casinos, with problems like this, are a good thing? Casinos promoted and funded, run by Government is problem. This is the reason Government should not be in business of gambling and selling liquor. Gambling, booze and prostitute are going to exists as long as human race exists. So does the addicts. Be it drug, booze or anything else. |

I want Government out of this business. Whether we legalize or not people will pay for hookers and drugs. These things are with us forever. And you forgot some government sold drugs and funded the arms shipment to their "Friends".
Just off topic. US DEA agent paid hookers for secret service agents. |

personally, booze, gambling, cigarettes, and "weed" should be sold and revenue above operating costs go into the tax pool, the siphoned out through tax loopholes by people who don't even pretend to have an interest in the people. |

It will both create taxation revenue, and reduce taxation expeditures in one fell swoop.

About the only ones getting busted are the nasty, drug-ridden street walkers which would be illegal anyway and the mob/biker-controlled houses.
Everybody else pretty much has free reign. |

That's the future in my opinion. It's inevitable. It would reduce crimerate and increase income through taxation a lot. The black market would still exist (it always will) but at least the nation would be profiting from it. |

In fact, there's stuff going on in the Town of Fort Erie right now preparing for the eventual legal regulation and taxation that will occur. Gotta replace all the lost municipal tax revenue somehow, I guess. |
