Fed up with gambling ads? - Results (17 votes) No 23.53% (4 votes) 4 Yes 29.41% (5 votes) 5 Hell Yes 17.65% (3 votes) 3 Who decided this was okay? 11.76% (2 votes) 2 I will hunt down all those involved with this invasion of my senses. 17.65% (3 votes) 3 Children Ruin Everything, (Canadian show, shot in Toronto) and they have a betting storyline where they slipped in the OLG (Ontario Lottery and Gaming) slogan, know your limit, play within it. They had some Bell ads in the background of some first season episodes, so they are not above the easy corporate synergy. I am just fed up with all the betting ads that have been dumped on us, every sports station has become one long betting advertiser that occasionally shows sports. They even have the broadcasters running the live odds in intermissions as a segment they block out time for. <cite>KodyKeir posted [p:968315414] in They just ...

Straughan 09/26/22 8:29:33 PM #2:	Yes, betting shouldn't be allowed for low income people. It keeps them low income, saps their credit, their buying power, and goddamn man how long are we gonna say, "He's an adult" and let people become impoverished while simultaneously saying, "End poverty!" You can't have both. It's time for change. Also, my vote would be hell yes. I voted too fast. Also I don't think anyone but the wealthy should gamble and most of it should go to the people. I'm trying not to be authoritarian, but damnit man... I've seen this shit my whole life. It's hard trying to help people and being for helping and advancing society and nothing fucking changes. We're doing the same dumbass shit since forever. See why I avoid politics guys. I get all riled up, forget what I'm doing. Now I'm late and my gf is texting me pissed off. --- Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process they do not become a monster. <cite>Straughan posted [p:968315556] in They just ...

I hear it every day be it radio, TV, web browsing. Its like we need a new addiction to replace big tobacco. Some ads on the radio will end with mentioning about gambling addiction and to call some 1-800-Bets-Off. Its like wtf then dont advetise this **.

That's the beauty of running online gambling: Your overhead costs are so low that you can branch out into more niche markets without having to worry about whether or not they're large enough to support you. hera posted... betting tends to get more popular during a recession because the people betting see it as an easy way to get a lot of money with little money but they don't win Indeed.

Because I can't escape the ads (when I get to the new place I am putting a pi hole in) I know they are offering in game bets and speciality bets on anything you can dream of through the app. This is great news for the casinos that no longer have to deal with suicides in their parking lots. Casinos are all in an uproar over it, they still have to pay higher fees and taxes than the online operators, and people don't really want to travel to crowded areas still, they thought Doug would bring them the gravy train but he sold them out for bidders with deeper pockets. I would not be surprised if the party found a reason to Patrick Brown him. --- Why didn't you DODGE‽‽‽ Quoting me will trigger the profanity filter, Not Joking. I've been Scunthorped!
