So what do you think about gambling? Personally I enjoy a hand of poker or black jack every once in a while. Sure I know that the odds are usually against me but I still enjoy it.
VLTs on the other hand I have never really liked, however I sure don't think that they should be banned. Ok, I know that there are people that are addicted to them. But there are also people who are alcoholics, and we are not calling for a ban on beer. People that live in families with Alcoholics can tell you that it is not a nice experience. Sure it is harder to put a money figure on it since it is mostly emotional, but why does that make it any less serious of an issue.
So in closing if they ban VLTs they shouldban booze and cigarettes too

If we ban VLTS outright we will lose alot of money that goes towards health care and education. I know this sounds silly but really how do you think the government gets alot of its money back. From VLTs and gambling.
As for me ive been in casinos, I enjoy playing the occasionaly card game but never put up more than 50 bucks at one time.
