“But speaking of gambling, #gambling is a behaviour where #people don’t think of the #consequences. And what this (#Labor) #government has done is gambled the #taxpayers’ money of Australia”

…

“We understand that the other side has a good heart, that they want to make #medicines cheaper. But to recklessly, recklessly cut the profits of small business owners, the #pharmacies working extremely hard, some of them have told me they’ve gone down to 30-40%. That gambling-like behaviour is simply not on.” — #ScottYung

Piss off Scotty, leave our Pharma alone.

38 DegreesStop 24-hour slots venues killing our high streetsMy mum, Wendy, was preyed on by a 24-hour slots venue in the town where I live, Stockport, when she was undergoing cancer treatment. Wendy spent hours each day gambling on the machines, losing many thousands of pounds – everything she had, as well as loans – her only break to go to the ATM. The staff never intervened to stop her.

“#Gambling ads are everywhere – even during the #footy. It’s not normal, and it’s not OK. I’ve written the bill to ban them. It’s ready. The major parties stalled. In a #balanced #parliament, we can make it law. #Independence works.” — MP/Candidate #Goldstein, Daniels.

Older Kidlet is home for the long weekend and he asked for new clothes. He needed jeans and golf shirts. We went to the outlet mall at Foxwoods casino. There's a small part that's open to the #casino floor and watching his expression was priceless. He said, "I don't understand throwing your money away." He is so much like his father. Me? I'll sit at a machine until my bladder is about to pop, feeling faint from hunger- if I still have money. #gambling #ct
