   Somebody said (I think it was FrostPrime) roughly: Gambling is genuinely the scariest drug, I actually think it's worse than cocaine and it's just right there on your phone.

   I think that really framed the issue well to me. Imagine having an addiction problem and having to carry the problem substance around with you 24/7.

      Imagine having a gambling addiction and trying to watch sports! I swear every third commercial is for gambling.

         I don't watch sports much, but the last times I did they filled the screen with ads for gambling in the middle of the games while they were being played
