Does anyone else see problems here? Charitable gambling is having problems raising money to give to charities because people can't smoke while they gamble away their money?

The very people they may propose to care for through donations are conned out of their money through gambling, and they complain that they can't also spend their money to smoke while they are there.

Gambling and cigarettes have a disproportionately negative effect on the poor, so let's take their money on one side and then donate some of it back? Just plain crazy.
