The gambling industry says it's in the "gaming" business, as if this is nothing but entertainment, or child-like play. Nope. The gambling industry gets its money not just from people who know that the house always wins in the aggregate, but also from people who are stupidly throwing away money they can't afford to lose. This is no game.
