March 27 — To the Editor:
To those who still think that building a casino in New Hampshire will answer our financial problems, take a look at the problems of the existing casinos to our south. Both the Foxwoods Resort Casino and the Mohegan Sun are looking for further grants from our impoverished federal government. Their reason is the competition from neighboring states, and as we know, Massachusetts has already approved at least one casino to be built in the near future. When subsidized casinos are having a hard time making ends meet, what makes you think we can do better? I don't like the idea of increasing taxes any more than the next person, but I don't think casinos are the answer to our spending problem.
