I knew about these laws, but it really seems like hypocrisy where the casino can be on a boat permanently moored but not on dry land. And they just had a chance now to change the law so they let them anchor the boats to the sea floor :) Here of course in this state casinos have to be run by Indian tribes but they are on dry land and that gives some economic development to the Native Americans, though it means they are usually in weird locations in the middle of nowhere. In California you go up some nice valley near San Diego and suddenly there is this huge casino complex tearing up the landscape... That is pretty irrational too. In Aus they are pretty much everywhere and in the middle of all the biggest cities where the market is biggest.
