In Austin, legislators and lobbyists are meeting today to discuss potential casino development in Texas, a long-shot idea that has gained popularity in part due to the ongoing recession.
In true Texas fashion, politicians are calling for doing nothing in a small way.

He said, "Not all casinos are created equal. Destination resort is the way to go."
