A.C....What the ...?
 
Anxiety about the city’s future has inspired some creative suggestions. One state legislator wants to attract tourists by legalizing marijuana in Atlantic City. The owner of Revel, Glenn Straub, has suggested using the empty $2.4 billion casino to house refugees from Syria and other combat zones—though Christie has said on the campaign trail that he’s opposed to letting Syrian refugees, including orphaned children, into the U.S.

"I don't know what to do with this albatross so why not have the government pay me rent to house refugee's that may or may not be infiltrated cause money is more important than being absolutely 100% certain we are not bringing in any terrorists"

And you would think with all the homeless in A.C. they would get first dibs on living in a luxury hotel on our dime.
