Message: [QUOTE="mick, post: 2178555, member: 1794"] Again, there are bugger all restrictions on people ending up "in the sh*t" regarding alcoholism among others. Add to that the fact that a HUGE percentage of people suffering major dramas due to gambling are poker machine addicts.[/quote:ry54d9tn] Nah there are heaps of restrictions on alcohol that actually deter people from drinking it though. - Can't drink and drive - Can't carry or drink alcohol in no alcohol zones - Majority of Bottle Shops aren't 24 X 7. - Alcohol not able to be sold to anyone who's consumed too much. List goes on. Can't say the same for online gambling. Bit of a free for all to be honest.[/quote:ry54d9tn] But again does that stop alocholism? Can't do a lot of things... well, you didn't put it well there. AREN'T ALLOWED is more likely... but people still do them. And above all else, none of the above things helps the rate of alcoholism in Australia, which is increasing and FAR greater than the number of gambling addicts. [/QUOTE]
