RC3 Org on the Bill Bennett story:
I have only one comment on the Bill Bennett, gambler story
that’s making the rounds. The most damning thing to me is that Bennett has blown millions of dollars on
slot machines and video poker. That, to me, is pathetic. If the guy were blowing his fortune on high stakes
games of Texas Hold ‘Em, I’d have some respect for him. Losing hundreds of thousands of dollars on a single
trip doing nothing but plugging chips into a high stakes slow machine tells me that you really are just
addicted to the most base cravings served by gambling, not any of the other thrills involved.
