The AGA

Frank Fahrenkopf, as organizer of AGA, was a brilliant strategist who recognized the pitfalls of Big Tobacco, and bought and paid for lopsided research. The Harvard connection was a stroke of brilliance, adding undeserved credibility. It's call propaganda.

Today, the American Gaming Association (AGA) announced that the National Center for Responsible Gaming (NCRG) is launching what they say is an impressive new video resource that uses research-based facts to provide a better understanding of gambling disorders. In the videos you will hear the director on addictions at Harvard Medical School, Howard Shaffer, Ph.D. He is the Gaming industry’s go to guy. The (AGA), the (NCRG) and Harvard Medical School all get funding from the Gaming industry.

I have reached out to both these origination's and Howard Shaffer on numerous occasions in hope that they would help me get my safeguards and provisions that address compulsive casino gambling implemented into Gaming Laws. Things like No 24/7 gambling, No free booze, No check cashing, No interest free credit, No free play, No comps, and for casino operators and their employees to intervene when casino patrons are gambling excessively, along with mailing their patrons who they are tracking through the casinos Reward Card programs monthly statements. They have not helped me, nor have they done anything to help stop casino operators from ‘BREEDING’ their patrons into casino gambling degenerates.

Check out the video link below and see for yourself the casino propaganda that the American Gaming Association (AGA) has used since its conception.
