Wynn more than any other casino operator knows how devastating compulsive gambling is on individuals and their families and yet he has never stopped anyone from becoming what his father once was. On May 26, 1978 Resorts Hotel and Casino opened its doors in Atlantic City New Jersey. This was the first expansion of commercial Gaming outside of Nevada. It was also the day the GAMING CANDLE was lit on both ends and its near to being burned out in every way. My name is Bill Kearney, I am a anti-gaming activist and former compulsive casino gambling degenerate who's been educating the citizens of my state and others throughout our country and other countries on the pitfalls of what the gaming industry and an alarming number of our government officials call a form of entertainment, no different then going to the ballpark or theater. I am also the author of a novel titled COMPED. The novel is based on the HighRoller life I once lived and the price I paid when living it up and doubling down in the Atlantic City casinos in the early 80s. It's time to address how our 'BILLION DOLLAR CASINO OPERATORS' have been given carte-blanche to 'FLEECE' and 'BREED' compulsive casino gamblers who will eventually become criminals. Over the years I've been addressing and proving that there are major flaws in all gaming laws throughout our country, and it's not where casinos will be built and who owns them. They could be owned by the Mafia, Ku Klux Klan, Neo-Nazis, Al-Kida or even the Catholic Church, whats the difference, its still the same SCAM that is FLEECING and BREEDING Americans into compulsive casino gamblers. The flaws are there are no safeguards or provisions in place that will protect today's casino gamblers and future casino gamblers from becoming what I once was. In other words all casinos are operating like amusement parks with no safety belts or cages on the rides. But to make it look like gaming operators and state officials are addressing this most certain outcome they're going to have things like a 1-800 GAMBLER get help number, and a 24-hour-a-day, 7-day-a-week hotline that provides crisis counseling. There's also self-exclusion for those who got so 'HIGH' on casino gambling that they destroyed themselves and in most cases their innocent families. Do you know of any other entertainment venue or industry in our country that has such an option? All of these good intentions and provisions address the obsessive gambling problem AFTER one becomes a casino gambling junkie. If we do nothing to stop the 'BREEDING' then be prepared to face the same ill-effect that we have been addressing since the sixties when the youth of America started entertaining themselves with drugs, it was called getting 'HIGH.' Here are a few of the tools that our government has given our casino operators to seduce their prey. 24/7 gambling, Free booze, Check cashing, Smoking areas inside, interest free Credit and those so-called freebies known as COMPS that make many justify their losses. Can you think of any other industry in our country that operates in the same fashion?
