I have never seen any place, real life or online, embrace gambling as much as this forum has.
Truly I will never understand why this place offers up gambling as a legitimate way to increase your holdings like it's some type of fun Saturday job.
If people want to set their money on fire then fine. They ain't getting any sympathy from me.
I would not put drugs and gambling on the same page.
Once you are a drug addict you are harming your body and mind. You are taking substance but a gambling addict is harming his mind. The physical affect is less here.
You can not take drug just for fun but you can gamble for fun.
Anyway, there will be many more difference. Point is gambling addict and drug addict is not the same in my eyes.
Problem gambling breeds lies, theft, suicide, and ruins lives. Just like drugs funnily enough.
There's plenty of people who can take it or leave it but the normalisation of gambling in recent years must have fucked up millions of lives that would otherwise have been untouched by it.
