There is no question about the gambling industry helping to bring revenue to a country. But do not generalize that it's the "life support" of everyone.

The truth is that anyone can say that, but when someone starts playing things really change. I don't mean you react on the basis of losing. However, it is very important. I mean, you come to the casino with a desire to win, and that's a mistake.

That's everyone's desire in gambling, we all want to win but you don't have control over the outcome. Well, everyone can say anything what they want to say but there are somethings that we can't connect to the lives of most.

I think the figure of speech used was just too much but at some point, that's a fact for a country where the gambling industry is big.

A good example is Macau were around 80% of the revenue came from gambling. If that industry crashes, the country will be doomed as other industries there are not performing well to support the whole operation of that place.

But if the user means literally that gambling is "life support" for everyone, then that's wrong.

We can understand that for those countries that have life blood through gambling like Macau and places like Las Vegas. But to connect it to the real life of everyone, there are boundaries that we can't tie it up.
