The columnist makes a fair point but perhaps the thousands of people who give their money to the gambling houses could redirect a few millions of those wasted dollars? Likewise many religious people give large amounts to their pastors to buy expensive car, big house, even half a private plane. Forget trying to buy your way into Heaven and save and invest to create a little Heaven on Earth for yourself instead.

As so often happens this letter writer mixes truths and his unfounded opinions together as if they are the same, Extrapolating the logic he expresses; sex is addictive, did not Tiger seek help for his confessed sex addiction? Therefore no one should have sex. Sugar addiction kills thousands of people worldwide each year through diabetes and other sugar caused diseases, perhaps we should ban sugar as well as sex? And has anyone heard about Gaming addiction, or addiction to Social Media? As always a little learning can be a dangerous thing.

However, that did not happen."
