The Sell-Out: How Massachusetts Plans to Create New Addicts To Pay For Struggling State Programs

As states suffer from the crushing burden of casino capitalism on Wall Street, governors and legislatures are scrambling to make up for the shortfall. Their dangerous solution? Get hundreds of thousands of their own citizens hooked on predatory slot machines.




This new and powerful video takes you behind the glitter and the falsehoods to show you what casino operators -- and the legislators and public officials who support them -- don't want you to know.

Hey, in Calif we already got this. We are going a step further to legalize drugs - SO WE CAN TAX THEM. This is the direction of this once great country.

Canada, New Zealand...anything but the USA.

a lot of people don't know the truth and facts and aren't aware which = no one speaking up, more people need to simply be aware!

Hundreds of millions of dollars to balance our state budget paid voluntarily ... sounds too good to be true! Maybe that is because slots/casinos are either not good, not true or neither good or true. Trump and others on verge of bankruptcy, RI casino abandoned for the state to pick up the pieces, MD plans for $660 million crash when one of several site got NO bidders and most got only one bidder, etc. etc. etc. Let's look this gift horse in the mouth before inviting it into our state .....

Why is Massachusetts going down this terrible road? I don't get it. Slot addiction wrecks people lives.

A heart-wrenching and outrage-producing piece of work. Shows the wicked science behind the slots... which eliminates the "free" in "free choice"...
