Illinois' gambling addiction - yuk!
My niece, Kris Barr in New Brighton, Pa., e mailing me after I told her about Illinois' massive gambling expansion, wrote, "These gambling games are like an insidious disease that has no cure, running rampant and squeezing between any and all cracks. The promise of wealth and fortune take hold of all types of people with every background and compels them to partake - much to the ruination of many souls and lives. Yuk!"
I couldn't have said it better.
