Three percent is better than nothing

If the naysayers would quit whining about the proposed casino giving the local non-profits only 3 percent and figure out that will be 3 percent more than they're getting now, then realize that with 3 percent perhaps (the city) could actually run that fancy new library they're building but can't afford to open.
Wow, people, think about it. It's not going to take Riverside Casino or any other casino down. People are still going to go to whichever casino they win the most at.
