In short.
The City of Philadelphia is 2nd on the list of what cities are asking for the most money from the Federal Govt.
The 2nd line item on our list of things we want to spend that money on is $125 Million for Casino development.
This is at the same time that the City of Philadelphia is trying to cut funding and close 11 city public libraries… In an effort to save money in the economic downturn.
With as much effort as they’ve put in to rezoning the Market Street Gallery Mall to make it able to have a casino, and how little effort they’ve put in to saving the libraries *AND* are now asking for that much money to place a casino in the center of the city…
Mayor Nutter will not get my vote when he’s up for reelection.
