    Reason #1 is that many Americans are too stupid and too lazy to do math and too stupid to realize that people don't build and staff those big expensive buildings to make THEM rich.

    Reason #2 is that gambling is rather like injecting amphetamines but without the needle marks. Gambling creates a drug-like effect from internally-manufactured endorphins and adrenaline that can be every bit as addicting--and as destructive--as crystal meth. Not being a drug user, I don't know exactly which drug to compare it to, but it would be one of the uppers, not a downer.

    The difference is that there are some drugs (I guess) that you can't use without becoming addicted to them, and others like alcohol and gambling that you can use occasionally without becoming addicted and without ruining your life.
