Molly you are quite right, slot machines are isolating, you play them on your own and the only boundaries to what you spend are the ones you impose on yourself. Bingo is more social and it requires more involvement from you. To some extent your pace of spending is controlled by the pace of the games. I wouldn't want to ban slot machines, but I think they should only be in more controlled environments and I think the size of the payout should be restricted.
