Pa. pols have an addiction problem

Pennsylvania has an addiction problem.

And we're not talking about the opioid-heroin scourge.

Actually, we're not talking about our residents.

We're talking about our esteemed leaders in the state Legislature.

They're hooked on gambling.

Last week they ushered in sports betting at Harrah's Philadelphia Casino in Chester. Just in time for the Super Bowl, you can now legally place a wager on pro sports events here in the Keystone State.

I am not surprised.

We talked about it on Sunday's editorial page.
