    "content": "Bill is making it possible for our youth to get into some sort of business to solve the problem of unemployment. We have seen taxes levied on gambling because we have been trying to discourage it. However, in developed countries, they encourage gambling because it is a source of business and it brings the Government some revenue. In cities such as Las Vegas in the US, it is a source of tourism, well developed and well- regulated. So, I support this Bill because it is going to regulate and control gambling. Those ones involved will have to be registered, known and must use tools which will ensure that the owners of the game do not get everything. It is so that they do not win it all. In the past we have seen some people participate in gaming. They get very addicted and end up getting depressed after losing everything. However, when the Government regulates it according to this Bill then we will see some systems in place. This will be a source of income to our youth and the people who participate."
