I write to you today with concerns regarding a bill you sponsor, Senate Bill 5284. I have some misunderstandings regarding your bill. To the best of my knowledge, gambling on fantasy sports remains illegal in the state of Washington alongside five other states in the United States. Before I go further into my claim I would like to give my definition of gambling as well as my definition of fantasy sports. Gambling, in my opinion, consist of a game of chance. Fantasy sports are fictional teams assembled upon the better knowledge of the participant. The winner of the contest is then defined by the statistical performance of the participants' players. I am confident that we have similar definitions of those words, but our stance on the issue thus

Gambling... Who does not like to gamble? People play lotteries, bet on sport games or try their luck on slot machines with a thought to win some amount of money. In fact, this excitement for gambling can be seen even from early ages; for example, ancient Egyptians used to play dice in 2000 BC or the first casinos opened their doors to customers during the Greeco-Roman period ( Whittaker and Cushman 1 ). Nowadays casino industry is a large business in the United States that brings high revenues and offers various entertainment that attracts people from different areas. So just recently residents and visitors of Worcester, Wicomico and surrounding counties got a great opportunity to try themselves in a new Ocean Downs casino that came into operation couple months ago. Ocean Downs casino is an excellent benefit to the community that helps to improve the economic and social status of the county and also serves as a great entertainment for the adult population.
But then again there are also the adults who think that the game is a bad habit, and develops bad gambling habits. "It's fun. It's exciting. It's glamorized on TV and in the media in a way that other addictions are not," says Keith Whyte, executive director of the National Council on Problem Gambling. "There's the impression that through skill you can beat the odds. But randomness is always going to have a bigger factor in determining the outcome than your skill." The fact is, is that gambling is an addiction and has been known to be hard to overcome. However, I don’t think that anyone can actually say that it is forbidden because I really think that no matter what, every person takes a chance which can be considered gambling.
The overall purpose of “Gambler’s Anonymous” is to support people that have a serious gambling issue. Most of these people have gambled away their life savings and destroyed their families.

Gambling is described as the betting of money or property on the result of an event or game that is mainly random with the desire to win more money or gain additional property.

Since inception, gambling and gaming has continued to develop to an extent that it worth more than $335 billion across the globe.

It creates a class of addicts driven to compulsive gambling. A negative effect on the physical aspect can include getting physically violent which can cause one to harm innocent people. This can happen if a person keeps losing and runs out of money. When one gets addicted in placing bets, one starts to prioritize bets over his/her family and over his/her needs. Winning also has its disadvantages. When one wins, they can start to lose control of the cash and continue to spending. To be brief, if one gambles, one continually ends up a loser.
Gambling addiction is an issue found in numerous areas where gambling is legal. People who are addicted to gambling, also know as problem gamblers, face many health risks including depression, suicidal thoughts, loss of sleep, loss of appetite, migraine and anxiety in addition to marriage breakdown, problems at work and bankruptcy (9). About 2 percent of adults are thought to be problem gamblers (1). In today’s society this costly addiction is not often considered to be a common problem among those who gamble. Only a small amount of states in the U.S. give enough attention toward this rising problem of people that are sometimes even willing to commit crimes just to aid their addiction. In the past our government has sought out a few solutions that help those who have developed an addiction and prevent a further increase in the number of people becoming addicted. Personally, my outlook on the problem is that it needs a better solution. I think that a higher funding to gambling addiction clinics, more ordinance and restriction laws, and more prevention and awareness programs should bee brought into consideration in order to lower the amount of people who become addict to gambling.
