what the public health folks have done is taken accus cues fm tobacco and obesity and said it's a medical problem. it costs all of society, etc., etc. >> john: annie, as a professional poker player, you've seen this sort of casino sleaze. >> sure. >> john: people are chain smoking. some people do lose all their money. >> it's true, but it's a very small minority, so it's wil less than 1% of people who engage in any kind of gambling activity that have a gambling problem. that's compared to alcohol where 7 to 9% of people, for example, use alcohol have issues. it's a really, really small problem, but even if those peoplele are having problems, they're making those9% choices r themselves as con sensual adults. they're not hurting anybody, and i don't think we're supposed to legislate to protect some small minority from their own bad decision and hurt the majority who do it in a healthy way and they really enjoy it in the same way they enjoy going to a restaurant or a movie. >> in cultures like the british osh or the australians where they have more gabbing bling, the problem isn't any greater. >> john: it's assumed if we legaliz

health sciences. define the parameters for us. you mentioned the treatment, the years of psychotherapy, talk therapy, family issues, etc. how does that differ from what you do? guest: mental illness is a very broad spectrum. what i focus on are serious mental illness, the things we know our brain diseases. schizophrenia, scherzo a fit of disorder -- schizo-affective disorder. these are the ones that are on treated. here are the numbers of adults being treated. what do the numbers tell you? guest: they are inflated. all of us need help out one time or another in our lives and that surprising. they like to inflate the problems so the problem seems bigger so congress will get more money. samhsa has not focused on the series mentally ill and they have not provided any serious leadership and that is one reason why president obama's response has been particularly weak. host: the list of programs include medicaid, medicare, supplemental security income, and social security disability insurance. our next caller in harrisburg, pa. caller: i have a nephew who smokes marijuana, he drinks, and he is on schizophrenic medication. how

are not making any adjustments in the national stugse institutes of health, homeland security bill, air traffic control, food safety, etcwever it could go over to senate. the senate could make important changes and then come back here and let's see if we can get some bipartisan working together. but it is not clear exactly what would happen and then, as i understand it, you have all reported it. first we looked at it and we said, hmm, this is an interesting idea. let's explorened and see if we can work something out. after it happened, they are still planning to do the sequester. so it would be the c.r. attached to the defense bill that would go to the senate that would be made better, but then they still want to do the sequester. i just want to close with one other important thing. budget control act already cut 1.5 trillion dollars. it is important to know that the scregsry part of our budget is the lowest -- scregsry part of our begget is the lowest it has -- budget is the lowest it has been in 45 years. when we talk about cutting jobs and talk about destroying the economy, this is real. these are are not statistics.
