Casinos



        At casinos, you must keep in mind that the house always wins With that firmly in mind, you can have a good time.
        Gambling can be a significant social problem. At one point it was banned in nearly every state across the US, so all gambling was illegal except in Nevada.
        Prohibitions gradually relaxed. Casinos grew into very legitimate businesses in Nevada and Atlantic City New Jersey. Along the way casinos evolved from "sin cities" to family-friendly getaways.
        First-Nations on their semi-sovereign reservations, began to open casinos after extensive legal work and lobbying.
        Today in some Oregon and Washington First-Nation (Indian Reservation) Casinos you will see auditoriums, offering well known traveling entertainers. They also subsidize the bars and restaurants, all to draw customers to their gaming floors.
        Oregon and many other states have State-owned lottery games. These include: "PowerBall" "MegaMillions" "MegaBucks" "WinForLife" and more scratch-off games than we could list here. Some are played out of vending machines found in supermarkets. There are also video-games that take cash wagers and pay cash for winnings in bars and coffee shops.
        These State governments now consider lottery income a major revenue stream... just like property taxes.
        Age 21 and over only.

We can't help recognize a gambling problem.

The links above however, can.

They can also help you deal with it.
We humans love to gamble.

It's not just those who are bad at math.

Most can see it as entertainment.

If it's a problem, know that you are not alone.

There are people who want to help. They can help.
There are destination resorts supported by gambling in Nevada and New Jersey.

There are also destination resorts on the reservations of our First Nations.

Rember: Gambling can be fun, but it can also be an addiction.

You can never beat the house long term.

You can however, always walk away.
