Some have no problem with risk. Others are risk averse. I believe we have a cross-section here.

I'd hate to see the parties some of you guys would throw.

I've cashed checks from my Florida credit union account at casinos here, no problem.

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.

Wow. I agree that people who can't afford to gamble shouldnt, but your rule seems so stupid. Why stop at casinos. If someone is on any government aid they shouldnt be allowed to go to amusement parks or buy alcohol or cigarettes. How about not allowing students with government subsidized loans to go to a casino, bar, club?
