Gambling gives West Virginia 1 out of every 7 dollars

In a recent news brief, it was reported that video game lottery systems are becoming a problem in Vienna, WV. City council met to discuss whether these types of gambling establishments can be set up. In the news brief, it stated that over $400 million was brought to the state of West Virginia by gambling. That is one out of every seven dollars that WV gets in a year. Many say this is a problem. How do you feel about gambling establishments set up near churches, park, and other "family" establishments?
