"We are highly distressed at your decision to revoke our casino licences," says FamilyCorp. Representative "Fat Tony" Alexei Mombota, while sipping a glass of fine wine. "If the ban were to be revoked, think of all the money you could get from your cut of the profit. In addition, it would help ensure the safety of assorted members of Novus Atlantica's government. I think this is an offer that you should not refuse."
"These casinos cannot be allowed to reopen!" says mother and homemaker Steffan Jong-Il. "Remember what happened last time? People get out of control and lose their life's savings! Just say no to these so-called legitimate businesses! And crack down on the rest of organized crime while you're at it."
"There is a solution to this problem" says Native Novus Atlanticaite chief Dances-with-drakes. "You could let us front the casinos as payback for stealing our land, and we'll enforce age limits and pay some tax on the income these casinos generate. Just think of the jobs it could create for us, and the boost to the economy!"
Which of these options provides the most significant boost to the economy?
