A few years from now if u dont get to  a gamblers anonymous  meeting on time  all the seats will be taken

People are gambling on there phone or computer  and dont even need cash    they are using credit cards 
   I was lucky there were no credit card when i was gambling
 
 The suicide rate of gamblers  is higher then other addictions
 
Today you watch a sporting event on t v and u see all the adds about gambling 
 
The states love it as the are getting $ from gamblers but its blood $  and some of the gamblers $ is coming from embezzlement  and white collar crime
