The Horseshoe Casino is open for business in downtown Cleveland but at what costs? Many hope the Casino will turn our economy around. But what about those whose lives have been turned upside down by a gambling addiction? On the next Regina Brett show, we explore how to protect against developing a gambling addiction when a casino is right in your backyard.
