 https://www.smh.com.au/national/nsw/nsw-club-pokie-profits-up-by-9500-per-machine-20180807-p4zvzb.html Pokies have also killed a lot of the live gig scene and subsequent up and coming bands because they have nowhere to play as the stages have been replaced by pokies.

For those counting, those 8900 machines in *25 most profitable clubs* is 890,000,000 - almost a billion a year AU. That is about 10x the entire market cap of Steem.  There are 200,000 machines in Australia. Do the math.

Just for adults in Australia in general, places that serve alcohol like pubs, clubs, casino. In Finland (where I live now) it was only recently that they raised the age from 15 to 18 for slot machines.
