According to a recent report, Australians are losing more money to gambling annually than the federal government allocates for aged care, and nearly as much as what is spent on the national disability insurance scheme.

One thought on “Australians are losing more money to gambling each year than the federal government spends on aged care and almost as much as it spends on the national disability insurance scheme, a new report has found.”

  1. That’s a staggering statistic that highlights the significant impact of gambling on Australian society. It’s concerning to see that the financial losses from gambling are surpassing crucial public expenditures like aged care and the National Disability Insurance Scheme. This raises important questions about the need for stronger regulations and support systems to address problem gambling. The government must consider how to allocate resources to not only support those affected by gambling but also to invest in prevention and education initiatives. It’s vital to prioritize the wellbeing of individuals and communities over profits from gambling activities. What do you think are some effective measures that could be implemented to tackle this growing issue?
