In Iowa, O’Malley sounds a lot like a Democrat liberals love: Warren

26. Regarding gambling?

It shouldn't be hard to find. I live pretty close to Casinos, I never got the appeal especially since there is no sports gambling nothing really winnable except for maybe some card table games but the couple times I was bored dragged to a Casino by someone who has fun at Casinos lost $20 or $40 or more. I know a lot of people who go to the casinos a lot, I don't know why do know sometimes someone has a good day at the casino but know a lot of money is lost. I was kinda mad they just didn't give the money to me since it was practically given away quickly.

It is better than the bullshit computer labs they have in Phoenix. A big one is on Indian School. As soon as you can come in there are signs everywhere pointing out THIS ISN'T GAMBLING. You're purchasing "Computer time" but they have casino-like that increase or decrease money used to "purchase internet time". No odds-posting, all these signs telling you what they aren't but very little in explaining in what they are, no idea how the games are set-up. I didn't want to go but a woman I was with wanted to, eventually I relented on her offer for $10 because i was bored for at-least a hour. All I did was basic strategy with Blackjack, I actually gained over a little over $20 strategy but after some bad luck I became desperate in simply getting to the point where I gained & retire the card but while basic strategy is good for winning hands it is betting strategy I don't have any idea what a good system is. I realized as my count was getting smaller so were my bets so I didn't much for a lot of hands won so I started increasing the bets, increasing the risk I ended up losing it all.

Whatever the hell that was, was worse than gambling I was the only one "winning", when I said I was 10+ what I made it came across as a surprise a few accused me of being dishonest in my claim. I was tired, I realized I now longer had more card info (money at $0 by the time I was done with it) when I remember I left it on the table I realized it was stolen so someone stole my "computer time".

But regarding showing your work or backing up claims. Losing money creates debt, therefore crime, payday loans & pawn shops enter the picture because they usually enter the picture when debt does as well. Whenever I sold something at a pawn shop it was very rare and I was very desperate. Payday loans, the interest rates scare me but I don't have the two weeks in check stubs & a lot of what they require so the one time I tried to use one they rejected me which I'm glad they did, the interest rates are crazy but for the loans they provide something normal would only bring a few bucks in profit.
