[QUOTE="Fly Carpin, post: 159705, member: 1187"] When I saw this bill I did a little reading. Found a few different studies where they looked at crime rates in counties with new casinos, comparing historic trends vs post-casino opening trends. Immediately after opening there was nothing but good. Lower unemployment, the number of adults that work but are below the poverty line decreases, and a few other positives. However this study [URL]https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers2.cfm?abstract_id=330337[/URL] found that approx. 4 years after a casino opens, bankruptcy, larceny, violent crime, and auto thefts increase about 10 percent in casino counties. Does this eventually level off? Maybe. I'm more concerned with a casino pulling business away from the local food and drink spots in Medora. [/QUOTE]
