Mexico's President Fox Supports Casinos - MEXICO CITY - Mexican President Vicente Fox says he supports the legalization of casinos as a way to raise government income and boost tourism. "Yes, I'm in favor (of legalizing casinos), in a controlled, supervised manner, above all in places visited by foreigners,'' Fox said April 24 at a tourism fair in Acapulco. Underground betting flourishes in Mexico, but casinos are prohibited. Betting is currently allowed at official booths at dog and horse racing tracks, and some bookmakers are authorized to place odds on some sports events. Proponents say legalizing casinos in the country could generate some $500 million a year in tax income alone. Fox sent a package of reforms to Congress this month, seeking to boost government income and reduce Mexico's dependence on unpredictable oil income.
