One group of crooks using the courts for a leg up over another group of crooks.
I have known two compulsive gamblers. They cause far more familial destruction than drug addicts. A drug addict is usually dead in a few years and though that is sad for all involved a gambler is worse. A gambler goes on for decades ruining everyone he/she gets involved with. They seem friendly and clever and some poor sap falls for the BS and marries them. Then it’s years of broken promises and misery. F*** gamblers. I’m not talking about the people who just like to bet from time to time, but the compulsive ones.
I know that it is impossible to prohibit gambling. But I do not care one whit for the gaming companies. Wish they could both lose.
Concur. I knew a man whose wife was addicted to gambling. She was a great lady and they really loved each other. The only way their marriage survived is that he had complete control over the money, she was given a weekly gambling allowance, and they owned nothing of substance (to prevent her from selling it). However, due to not being able to own anything expensive, they went on great trips and had an investment account to die for.
