Trump - "You're Bankrupt!" but still gambling

Donald Trump's signature branded Trump Hotels and Casino Resorts Inc. has filed for bankruptcy in the US according to this article on Newsday.com.
America's 74th richest person led the company that he is chairman and chief executive of into a financial disaster accumulating $1.8 Billion US in debt.

Trump may not be personally effected financially but I can expect that many of his employees may be hearing his famous line "You're Fired!" as the company not only tries to trade its way out of bankruptcy but also faces increasing competition from new casinos in Trump's stronghold of Atlantic City and generally expanded gaming in the US.

Not everyone that works in gambling is a gambler, nor are they bad people. In fact most are honest hardworking people performing in jobs to the best of their ability in what is an industry that due to the actions of more senior managers and executives often have to day-to-day deal with the stress from working in the industry.

Sometimes you just wish that those at the top think about things other than money and may be actually look at the consequences it has on gamblers, their own employees and the community in general.
