From a “situational characteristic” perspective, casinos are marketed as vacation
In the forefront of this week’s discussion, Hampton Inn and Motel 6 are both classified, in my opinion, as members of the same strategic group as Porter’s generic strategy explains things (Parnell, 2008). Although, if you were to experience a visit to a Hampton Inn say for instance at the Nashville, TN exit near the airport, you would expect to pay an average $234 per night on short notice (Hampton Inn, 2018).

My apartment is a 3 minute walk from the beach and yet I only rarely get to enjoy it. Although there are days, there are precious days, when I can just stop and smell the ocean.

Voltaire: The Rogue Thinker "God is a comedian playing to an audience too afraid to laugh" (New World Encyclopedia), once said the French Enlightenment writer, Voltaire. Ever since he began to become popular in Europe, Voltaire had an intense dedication to his beliefs. This offset the fact that he never created a philosophy of his own.
