Questions about Gambling
Man who agrees with gambling
I'm going to introduce the other one named Frank who agrees with legalized gambling as if I were him.
" I'm Frank Fahrenkopf, who is a CEO of the American Gaming Assosiation. I think gambling shouldn't be illegal because by using the reveneu from casinos, we can support people who are addicted to gambling, lost their jobs and live on welfare. For example, we can help them to find a new job. That's how they don't have to rely on welfare any more. So, we could help her if she asked us to help.
The point is that gambling does more good than damage."
A Gambling Addicts Point of View
One of the major problems of gambling is the people who get addicted to it. They usually don't realize it until it is too late, and many ruin their lives because of it. I will introduce one case of a how a gambling addict named Sally who got hooked and took various actions she did due to gambling.

First she just started playing socially, but after a big win she gradually started to fall into the depth. She also stated that the dollar machines were one of the reasons she got hooked. Thinking she could get a another good win, she spent most of her time planning for her next game. She started resorting to illegal methods to gain money and the results that followed made her regret everything. She lost a job she had for 30 years, and without her husband controlling the money she couldn't have overcome her addiction. She still considers herself lucky since, there are many people who throws away everything and relation they have for gambling. Once addicted, it becomes hard for one to see right from wrong, and it's even more difficult to accept that it is wrong.
