Downtown now has a large gathering area with an ice skating rink, a gambling casino, condos galore, shopping plazas and restaurants all around the Rock-n-Roll Hall of Fame, and even the flats now has a new design.

So not my cup of tea, but then we have industries built on risk, from casinos to insurance...

I do, and it is in the multi-billions, USD.Their 'standards' for projects are anything humanitarian (which just means it creates growth, adds jobs, etc etc - not necessarily a non profit) and no casino's (no gambling ties).They demand a 40% share in the company they are providing the funding for.
