Yes but not everyone could do it since there are some people who only have enough salary to sustain their livings to pay their bills and to put food on their table.
But there are some who couldn't do it even save a small amount from their salary for emergency purpose or for times like this.
We couldn't blame them just think about what they have done in order to survive before the crisis occur there are some who are already having a hard time managing their income or only make enough to live their life.

Even if they will work hard every day if their work income is not sufficient to support all of their expenses for daily lives, it's hard to save money for an emergency. They can't think of saving for an emergency because their income is not enough for daily expenses. We can't really blame them that their income is not enough when the living expense in an economy is increasing, yet their income is not.

"We often think about gambling businesses having no income"

- I think this is wrong though, gambling business is a big income business and even though they've closest their casino, they have a lot of money at their disposal. And they could compensate their employees, whether it is a regular paying employee or not. They owe their success to those hard working guys and they should return this big favor to all the people around them. They can definitely cover all the lost they have incurred in this lock down very easily, once everything settles down.

During the closing time, they have no increase in revenue because they are not operating, but it does not mean they don't have money. Of course, they have, that's why they should also consider helping their employees.

They need to be helping now but we cannot force them.
i believe that US government is helping also right?so lets stay safe and let us not blame anyone about this because this is a Virus and no one knows what will happen next time.

We can't expect that the government can help each individual during the lockdown. Yes, America is a rich country, but to think that they also need to fund medical equipment and more, I don't think they can give help to everyone in need. A simple consideration of those big casino businesses is a big help.

I think they can pay casino workers in advance because casino workers doesn't have any income aside frok casino and they have no income totally since all of the casinos are offline and closed. I hope their government can help them because they need really need it. Maybe they can work from their home by servicing online gambling and they can also play. I hope they can get a way to survive the shutdown.

For me, the best solution they can do is not advance salary. If they will receive an advance payment, the following month, they won't receive anything. I think it's good to deduct their paid leaves like vacation and sick leave. Or, they can give them their other bonuses like half of their 13th-month pay in advance. Christmas bonuses in advance, but not their monthly salary.
