Possible government credit card ban at casinos alarms gaming group
By J.D. Morris, Las Vegas Sun
A recent report that found federal employees improperly used government credit cards at casinos could have unnecessary consequences for the gaming industry, the American Gaming Association warned today.
In a May 19 report, the Department of Defense Inspector General’s Office said it discovered hundreds of thousands of dollars in transactions where department credit card holders probably used their cards for personal purposes at casinos and “adult entertainment establishments.”
The report made several recommendations, including that the government consider blocking cards from being used at specific casinos or adult entertainment businesses. The gaming association is taking issue with that recommendation.
How about just firing the employee who improperly used the card and their boss who approved their expense report.
Problem solved.
Thats not how govt works. They like to punish all for the actions of a few and promote people to other departments instead of firing.
