"content": " I ask to support this Bill with a lot of reservations because basically lottery is gambling. Whether it is gambling or betting, it is the same thing. Taking chances with the little resources you have in the hope that you will get bigger ones without actually working for it. We know that this takes place whether we like it or not. Currently, it is going on everywhere and it is not controlled. People, including adults and school going children are all involved and there is no control. Institutions or agencies are involved and there is no control. The media, communication companies and mobile companies are all involved in one kind of betting or another, and nobody controls what is happening. With kids, it gives rights to delinquency and tarantism. Kids literally drop out of school because of this. We also know that it is related to addiction. You can be addicted to betting or gambling because it is addictive. People have lost huge sums of money and become paupers through this.
