haha then should we ban tiktok too (some places already do). it's destroying people's brain cells and people also can be millionaires and some try to be famous and make it but only few actually get there :'). oh and let's add the crazy shit people do to get views. Some of that stuff is dangerous.
anyways my point is. It's an issue of discipline. The core of gambling is actually not a bad thing. it's people that have an addiction and that can apply to many things like drugs, alcohol etc which is why I don't think gambling is fine staying legal.
What I think needs to be done is focus on education. making sure more people are educated and making a better income so they dont feel pressured to have to gamble to get out of their poor life. Usually these are the type of people that buy lottery tickets and do gambling. if people already have money well they just do it for entertainments sakes. i could be wrong though ;d
