Some of you sound so bleeding self-righteous!
What the hell, who cares if you think pokies are addictive/boring/evil/socially defunct?
Legislate against them? What an absurb idea. The people who are going to be problem gamblers will just gamble on something else.
Legislation is a denial of personal responsibility for the few, and an abuse of civil liberties for the majority.
Pokies? I love em! I know how to calculate 10%, so I want to own a squizillion of them.
Put my own hard-earned into them? No way, I'd rather blast my bucks on one wild night!
