Casinos go bankrupt periodically. It causes no great problems.

Larry Flynt and the guy behind 'Girls Gone Wild' are also arguing the same thing and are now looking to Congress for a bailout to the porn industry...seriously.

Casinos are consider not important at all to the USA economy and seen as a liability and federal government could care less if they all go bankrupt. For people who think the Casinos are going to be helped out, you guys are really pretty uneducated. I just cannot believe people even bringing up a ridolous thought.
WOW, I hope a MOD snips this forum, considering how ignorant and uneducated your post is. 4 people here with me just read your post and we're all laughing.To put it simply, YOU ARE WRONG, and its embarrasing to the forum
Here are some true facts for you:
A-The total amount of people employed by casinos is comparable to the total amount employed in every aspect of the automotive industries in the united states(millions)
B-Gambling revenues are one of the single largest tax generators for our state AND federal government
C-Very few casinos in Las Vegas are posting losses, their profits are down, but they don't need a bailout; MGM's third quarter profits was $61 million, down from more than $100-million in the same quarter last year, but they are not in danger of bankruptcy.

Anyone with a basic understanding of finance understands just how important casinos are to the US economy, but you also raise a moot point(NO BAILOUT NEEDED) So please, do some research, maybe take a macro and a micro economics course, pick up the Wall Street Journal, and spell check(ridolous?)

Thanks guy
