Oxford County casino
As an immigrant from southern Nevada, I can say with confidence that the real fallout from casino gambling is a massive increase in violent crime - not by the casino proprietors, who are far too smart to get caught this way, but by the dimwitted gamblers who lose their shirts and then try to get even by holding up convenience stores.
The only thing you need to remember is that Vegas money goes back to Vegas - with your money stuck to it.
