They've bungled this from jump street. Gambling to reduce property taxes was the Philadlephia politicians brainstorm(Rendell Fumo among others) many of whom switched allegiances in midstorm and tried preventing slots from happening in Philadelphia.


The Slots only decision was a disaster that kept the big boys like MGM on the sidelines. Then the city stalled, economy tanked, and what you are going to be left with is a 7 acre parking lot, a tent, and 12000 slot machines. Absolutely Brutal.
