To the Editor:
Why do we need more gambling places? The newspapers are full of items telling that the state wants to spend more of the taxpayers' money to help addicted gamblers -- people who can ill afford to gamble and probably don't have enough money left to put food on the table for their families.
Also, please tell me how gambling places will increase jobs. Jobs doing what and where?
We need somebody to spend time finding ways to increase industry and business locally -- like clothing, household supplies, food supplies, recreation for our youth and other places too numerous to mention.
