With over 1/3 of the population on public assistance and the Big Island not self sufficient - a casino could only help.

Regardless - it would never happen.
If not a casino, how about a sportsbook?

Lawmakers here seem to be anti any form of legal gambling here, which is regrettable in some ways. People are allowed to drink and smoke themselves to death legally, but buying a lotto ticket or placing a sports bet are steps too far for the state legislature

To be clear, I'm still anti-casino for the reasons outlined in my OP, but I'm not against all forms of gambling.
