There was a time when technology wasnt that much suppressive. And see it now, even people are running themselves just because of this gambling thing. They want to kill themselves financially and emotionally but just they got blind of the worst greed, they arent seeing anything. Online gambling is also a worst part of this technological evolution. May things get good?
First comes morals before technology. Of course gambling can lead to a person becoming poor and in debt but that was their choice to gamble. Nobody forces others to gamble. If you fall into a temptation to make a mistake then you are the one to blame not the casino. In another sense it is a business method for the casino owners. They run a good business from it and also the investors of the casino and affiliate marketers.
Those who dont get themselves addicted to gambling are well to do. If you are cunning enough to be one of them then you are a diplomatic winner different from the rest of the general population.
