Critics of government growth through casino proliferation sometimes claim the surest way to end the debate once and for all is to allow casinos in every state and watch them bankrupt each other in a zero-sum battle.
An article in Monday's Wall Street Journal suggests this may already be happening:
Pie-in-the-sky government funding schemes could have great value for Kentucky if failure elsewhere motivated our politicians to bring more focus to making government smaller instead of continuing the hunt for iffy revenue streams.

Casinos not such a sure bet anymore?

A not so pie-in-the-sky government funding scheme would be the legalization of all things hemp. Over 50,000 products can be made from hemp.
Medical and recreational marijuana could be regulated and taxed.
The closest candidate likely to be amenable to that would be Obama. He said he'd call off the Department of Justice dogs on medical marijuana users in states that have medical marijuana laws.
McCain, on the other hand, believes that there are only two things that can be made from hemp -- rope and marijuana. So, he opposed to any legalization of hemp.
