I had the pleasure once of getting drunk with a person who was a security guard at the Montana Women's Prison in Billings. He asked about my occupation and I didn't lie to him. He relayed some very interesting news to me. A third of the women in the prison were there on gambling related offenses, accumulated bad checks, embezzlement, fraud, outright theft, etc.
A Montana casino owner once told me that one of his expenses was replacing chairs that had been ruined by urine. That's pretty bad if a person is so zoned in that they won't even get up and go to the restroom.
Rob, call me slow, but I don't get where the "AP's, experts, and math people" are somehow responsible. Should the entire population not be enlightened on strategic gambling because a percentage of them will turn out to be compulsive gamblers? In that case, then ignorance reins.
Some kids will drive recklessly and kill themselves and/or others. Therefore, Driver's Education should be abolished. Is that what you mean?
