(Jamma) “The Municipality of Vittoria adheres to the national campaign 'Enough with the slot machines'”. This was requested by the Vittoria section of the Communist Refoundation. "It is necessary to join the national campaign launched by the Hyenas "Enough with the slot machines" - wrote Davide Guastella for the Secretariat of the Communist Refoundation di Vittoria – and bring to Parliament a series of proposals to block the proliferation of gambling halls which only lead to the ruin of entire families for an ephemeral gain of the state. In fact, gambling brings about 8 billion euros to the state coffers a year, but it causes about 6 billion euros to be spent on the treatment and assistance of those with addiction. To date - continues Davide Guastella - six mayors of important cities have joined the initiative: Luigi de Magistris (Naples), Giuliano Pisapia (Milan), Flavio Tosi (Verona), Piero Fassino (Turin), Leoluca Orlando (Palermo), Federico Pizzarotti (Parma), Michele Emiliano (Bari). We hope – concludes Guastella – that this number will grow”.
