Casinos in Utah

So the students were assigned to write a persuasive essay. One of the prompts was should there be casinos in Utah? This quote is from a student paper. He made the same mistake twice so I guess it's intentional: Do you know what casinos bring? Gambling prostitutes and drugs. Gambling is a big waste of time and money.

Oh the importance of one little comma:
Gambling prostitutes or gambling, prostitutes?

Grammar sticklers of the world unite!
