1) The casino being built in Singapore is supposed to be a money-maker and job creator. However, many people have spoken against it. Talk to a parent or adult and get their view on the casino. Listen to the NPR and YouTube offerings and choose one that substantiates your viewpoint and include a quote from it as well. Your blog entry has to be at least 200 words and you must either support the casino or condemn its construction and ultimately the hardships it will cause in Singapore.
To me, I would condemn the building of the casino in Singapore. Although the building of the casino in Singapore would create many jobs and make more money for Singapore's economy and help to tide over the economic crisis, it would lead to many problems for gamblers and their families.
Some problems that would result in are serious addiction to gambling, bankruptcy, heavy debts and many family problems.
Many people started gambling for fun with a small amount of money. When they started winning, they get this huge feeling of happiness which would cause them to be addicted to gambling as they think that their luck is with them and if they continue, they would be able to win more money and relax for the rest of their lives. This would result in their depleted savings, lost of trust just to borrow more money to gamble and the hardships the families need to go through.
Many people often say " When u gamble, you lose more than you win". This saying is very true. Gambling is purely by luck and chance and not on the amount of knowledge you have for gambling. Gambling requires no skill and the rewards are high, but you have to spend a higher amount such that you are able to succeed. Many people want to strike rich with no effort needed and turn to gambling.
In conclusion, if the building of the casino is needed, the gamblers must have strong self-control and self-restrain so that they would not be addicted to gambling.
