Canada

and the advertising for this crap is everywhere and most worrying it's pretty much the ONLY advertising in Toronto's financial district. Walk the Path there between the big bank buildings and every ad is for gambling sites. those are the LAST people I want becoming gambling addicts.

Yeah, no kidding. We come out of college with a lifetime of student debt, and housing, health care, and food costs skyrocketing. Nobody has any extra disposable income, but just in case you do, here's a fun new gambling act to light up your Dopamine receptors.

It's all part of the plan to extract every penny from us before we die. Intergenerational wealth is for the wealthy. The Middle Class is no longer allowed to participate. They're getting rid of the middle class, why should they have all that good money that the wealthy want?

And it's only young men for now, but they're going after everybody. The newest ads show middle-aged women with dissatisfied lives, with families that are ignoring her or exploiting her, then Ferris Beuhller sidles up and shows them this hot new Candy Crush phone game that isn't sports oriented, and now she's having fun that her family doesn't know about. It's her own little financial affair.

In many families, Mom is in charge of the household expenses, and in a couple of years, we'll be seeing stories of women who gambled away the family home.
