Actually, to be honest, I don't mind well regulated, fair odds charitable lotteries that raise revenue for needy recipients..... but as for casinos and betting on line that is creating a lot of misery for many of the masses and making a few very rich.... yes, they can argue how much they contribute in taxes (blah-blah) .... but they don't pay enough recompense for the problems the gambling addicted cause for themselves, their families, their employers they steal off etc etc.... if they paid their fair share, they wouldn't be able to afford it, very probably..... you could probably place a good bet that a few have the odds in their favour that they can make a healthy? profit out of their gambling businesses.
