O.k., scamming was the wrong word,people make choices that work for them. And they certainly have that right. But these sites prey upon people who are addictive personalities, not most, as I will concede. But when the gov’t is making money off a certain percentage of the population that is vulnerable to these entreaties, then they are guilty and responsible for the ruined lives it causes. Better to leave it to the professionals, the Mob. I am not arguing for banning gambling. That would be pointless. It happens, as does drinking and all kinds of other activities that people take part in. I just want the gov’ts role to be minimal and not encouraging.
