Why is everyone picking Costa Rica? It seems to be the pornographer/casino owner place to be right now.

It's just a kinda nice country PW... underneath it's a democratic and politically stable country - even more so than several other claimed democracies and has a prime consideration over individual rights - above almost all else.
A quick example of this was in a recent proposed taxation change where tax filings would be made and checked off by an employee of the taxation authority. Normal stuff you may think.
This was later abandoned and one of the reasons given by the Supreme Court (Sala IV) was that a tax employee would have to read a citizens tax filing and this was a violation of their privacy and against the constitution.
There are casino operations and laws/permits granted. Only me, but I don't see why CR has many casino ops because other countries have more infrastructure - eg... the UK has no problem with gambling and has major cabling to Europe and the US.
CR is not really a pornographers world - there are obviously a few folks here, but it's not a place to actually "do" business in the adult biz - more a location for a lifestyle enabled by the net.
There are an increasing number of "gringo camps" - sometimes known as "gated communities", but they do not represent CR in any way. They are basically comprised of moving a lump of Florida to Costa Rica. The real Costa Rica offers a lot more than gringo homes and latina girls.
As "pornographers" we are currently engaged in a couple of relatively large projects here and not simply to earn more money, but aiding and preserving the "real Costa Rica" via ecological means and with support thru several international organisations - and also by providing homes within these eco communities without messing up the landscape.
The eco aspect of CR is .. well.. just amazing and rarely seen by the average tourist who gets preoccupied by whores and beaches. Late last week I was on the project land which has beaches and had 17 dolphins in the water and one humpback whale swimming around. On shore there are three species of monkeys, toucans, red McCaws - around 350 bird species in total - and, kinda unusual even for there - a 9 foot boa wanted to cross the road (harmless). This is the kind of area that is extremely rare on the Pacific coastline and obviously needs looking after. (Can't remember the exact quote but National Geographic described it as "The most intense eco area still existing on the planet..."). No way are we having "condo complexes" in this region - but low density homes with some "environmental lifestyle" are fine.
So... it's not all just casinos and pornographers, but plenty folks with an interest in eco within CR.
