Casino Ethics: Alcohol

I've seen the casino act unethically many times when it comes to alcohol. I have a friend who regularly gets 86'd from a local place for being too drunk. Security walks him out to his truck and sends him out on the road in that condition. Why would'nt they insist on a cab? I know they continue serving people who have obviously had enough and they don't know if they are driving or not. That should always be taken into consideration. When someone is sitting at the bar for 5 or 6 hours straight and drinking steady the whole time they just let them continue so long as they are not causing trouble. Then the patron gets up and drives home. Since it is local the bartenders and waitresses usually know who they are serving and whether or not they are driving.

Um, the "fountains" that we don't see, are DRINKING fountains.

Oops, my bad, lol. I dont drink alcohol so thats why I got confused. And all of the casinos in Michigan that I know of have soda fountain. I heard they hard to find in Vegas

...You know alcohol doesn't come out of a drinking fountain right? ...although it should.

In Vegas, anything is possible.

These topics are covering a pretty superficial level of behavior. The most unethical behavior of corporations, including gaming corporations, starts with their involvement in politics. Who do you think drives the crackdowns on competition created by internet poker and gaming? It's just like how the 'Drug Free America' lobby is composed of alcohol, tobacco and pharmaceutical corporations.
