Why are you anti betting? If you can control yourself its a great form of entertainment!

A lot of people can not control themselves and get themselves into a lot of trouble. It is becoming easier and easier to gamble and therefore easier to get into debt.

Well that's their stupid fault. If you're so thick that you bin all your dough on gambling you deserve to be booted off a cliff.

There was a BBC doc earlier in the year that covered gamblers of all walks of life. There was one fella that was sticking his entire dole money in a fruit machine, then they popped round his flat to show he had nothing to eat for the week. So what? He should be in a mental home.

Gambling is a mugs game if you don't know what you're doing.

Agree to an extent. I think more should be required from the bookie to protect the most vulnerable and also should be laws on restricting customers. Having to take a minimum bet off someone.
