My daughter hears the same whine from her teachers union.

A real sign of the times...headline in the Atlantic City Press: "Casino earnings tumble: Gross operating profits plunge 23% in traditionally strong quarter (summer)." The article goes on to say that profits were ONLY $318 mil compared to $412 mil for the same period last year. Even the Borgata has laid off people. There are 11 casinos in A.C. and a few of them are really hurting. Besides the economy, they are blaming legalized slots in PA and the smoking ban, which has now been lifted.

You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em.
