Mohegan Sun Prepared for Slot Machine Addicts

The state has not been living up to its end of the slot machine addiction problem, but the Mohegan Sun has. The state is supposed to have assistance set up for those who have a slot machine gambling problem, yet the casinos are opening and none of those programs are yet running. The state seems to think that it is alright for others to worry about the slot machine addict problem, but that they can take their time with it.

The Mohegan Sun has all of its checks and balances in place for the slot machine addicts. Before they could open their doors, they had to prove to the state that they were capable of dealing with slot machine addicts. They had their employees trained so that they knew how to deal with the slot machine addiction, as well as putting up posters and distributing booklets showing the signs of a slot machine addiction for their customers.

Experts say that the amount of slot machine addicts will probably be small for awhile, but as more and more slot machine parlors open and the longer they are open, the more addicts they will find. Roughly one percent of all Americans are compulsive gamblers, and another two to four percent are in danger of developing a slot machine or gambling addiction. All they need is the ability to get to the slot machines and they will develop the addiction as well.
