I’ve just listened to Redi’s podcast on gambling. Its insidious tentacles reach the most desperate of our society. With no legislation to control these companies’ dazzling advertisements. Government happily reaps taxes.
I enjoy playing Majong but when completing a game, I’m offered rewards to play other games! I’m an old woman and feel sorry for the young who will follow the rabbit hole to gambling.
You are so right, @Colleen_Deane. This story really puts it into perspective:
“I think the idea of online gambling is nice, but the reality is that people don’t know when to stop. These websites are making a lot of money. They put a disclaimer, ‘winners know when to stop,’ but honestly, most people don’t.”
