Default Re: If you have to cash a check.......

I totally agree that some have no problem with risk and some don't. However, when you have to cash your payroll check before you go or as soon as you get there then imo you don't have enough money to be taking risk. My reasoning is that these are the type of people that WE are paying their health insurance etc. What happens if he gets hit by a car when he gets back? Who pays the hospital bill? US! There is a difference between risk and personal responsibility. Just pisses me off when people that can't afford to gamble do.

I think there should be a rule. If you are on ANY sort of government aid whether it be healthcare or your electric bill or if you don't carry health insurance or car insurance etc. then you shouldn't be allowed in a casino. Swipe your drivers license at the door. Have Medicaid.......denied!!!

I just see it so many times. Someone ends up paying for these people.

Your reasoning is really far off base. While it's true that playing cards with your paycheck is not a good idea financially there is no correlation between that and being uninsured. In fact, most people are insured through their jobs so if they got hit by a car they are already part of an insurance program and have paid premiums.
