Summary
aaunited.org, mediamobilizing.org - Gambling addiction is not just a by-product of casinos. Gambling addiction is a core part of casinos business: 27% to 55% of casino revenues come from problem or pathological gamblers. Gambling addiction hurts not only the addicts but their families as well. Studies show that 20-25% of spouses of gambling addicts are abused. Child abuse and neglect also go up in gambling addicts families. But we dont need studies to show us this. Many of us have seen with our own eyes how gambling addiction destroys families.
