Vox Pop : Open Forum - Casinos : 7/2/13

Today casino operator Mohegan Sun unveiled a new architectural design for its proposed casino in Palmer, Massachusetts. The project would include a 250,000 square-foot casino, two hotels, retail space, a conference center, an outdoor pavilion, and an indoor-outdoor water park. 

Massachusetts isn’t the only player in the regional casino game – New York State recently approved legislation to allow for the development of four Las Vegas-style resort casinos upstate.

On today’s show we want your take on casino gambling and whether their potential economic benefits are worth the potential negative aspects. WAMC's Ray Graf hosts.
