The Destructive Power of Gambling

I’m not a social ethicist or law-maker, but I’ve got much to say about the need for Pokies reform in Australia. Over at The Punch is my article called The Gambling Beast is Greedy and Shows No Mercy. For those in the USA, in Australia right now gambling reform is a big issue as one independent MP is holding the minority Labour Govt. hostage over this. I also come from a family where gambling addiction was seen at its worst. That is why I follow Homer Simpson in calling gambling addiction by the evil monster name “Gamblor”.
