The Gambling Business

This article is from 2000, but it's probably still true: Ten Things the Gaming Industry Won't Tell You.

1. You can't win...
2. ...and if you do, we might not pay you.
3. We promise more than we deliver.
4. We know everything about you.
5. We're a lousy investment.
6. Addicts keep us in business.
7. We target your children...
8. ...and your parents.
9. We have your legislators in our pocket.
10. Our regulation is full of loopholes.
