with the impact that internet porn has hade on todays culture and the horrible effects it has caused, is internet gambling the next big addiction to effect people?
Yes, It Is Rising To The Top With Porn And heathens Are Bitting Hock, Line & Sinker And They Are Loving Every Minute Of It!...Even The Teen Age Kids Are Expressing Strong Interest In It!...A True Saying: "Kids Do What They See Mommy & Daddy Do!....We Will Continue To Pray !!!

Addiction might include alcholism, smoking, gambling, internet addiction, etc.
Absolutely .... in fact it is usually the spouse or significant other who is the very, very best enabler. If you are the spouse and you are the enabler ... go to a 12 Step Al-Anon meeting in your area. You will find many stories, and persons just like you. They will help you be less an enabler and a proactive force in really taking care of yourself.

Online bgamblers/b are more likely to have a bgambling addiction/b
Online gambling has seemed to have caused more problems with gamblers by enabling players to have easier access to betting games as studies have shown that the majority of internet gamblers were found to have serious gambling problems. During a study by the University of Connecticut Health, 74% of the participants of the study were classified as level 2 or 3 gamblers. Although further studies are being worked on to find more about the severity of the problem, it is known that the availability of online gambling can attract those looking to hide their addiction and looking to gamble whilst isolated and anonymous. The accessibility of the internet makes it extremely simple for anyone to start gambling as and when they would like to. Bets are also smaller so users are more attracted to start playing. Travelling to a real casino isn’t as easy and costs a lot more money, therefore those with higher incomes are more likely to do so. Those with gambling addictions can be drawn to play online...
quot;Rats in a Cagequot; by James Quinn. FSO Editorial 10/12/2009
The world is a vampire, sent to drain
secret destroyers, hold you up to the flames
and what do I get, for my pain
betrayed desires, and a piece of the game
even though I know-I suppose I'll show
all my cool and cold-like old job
despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
someone will say what is lost can never be saved
despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage

Americans throw away close to $100 billion per year gambling in casinos and playing lotteries. This only includes the amount spent legally. Illegal gambling accounts for billions more. This is the net amount spent. In reality, $60 billion is spent on lottery tickets or $600 per household annually. Another $100 billion is squandered in gambling casinos. This amounts to $950 per household. The $160 billion spent on gambling each year is indicative of the get rich quick without hard work attitude of Americans. Even worse, households with income under $13,000 spend, on average, $645 a year on lottery tickets, about 9 percent of all their income. Our government feeds this addiction by siphoning off billions in taxes from these gambling revenues to redistribute as they see fit. Government sponsored gambling is a regressive tax on the poor and is immoral. Politicians have become addicted to the tax revenues being drained from the deprived in the country.
