Yes, gambling is addictive and that's why it is banned in many countries, but I think that banning it is not right. Adults should have a right to do whatever they want if that not harms anybody physically. I'm not saying that gambling is a good thing but everyone should have the right to make his/her own decisions.
I think even though gambling banned in many countries but still, if you're still willing to gamble in other words you have an addiction to gambling. I think the country's ban on gambling will never be left off. so the actual rules there yourself. you know what is good and bad?
