He says there are more pokies per capita in Australia than anywhere else in the world. He says machines are engineered to make them addictive as possible. He says they use the principles of operant condition and classical condition to reinforce addictive behaviour. He says there is no doubt that pokie machines are strategically placed in disadvantaged areas, such as Fairfield in NSW.
