I am not really a gambler but I heard about people who can't quit it and keep losing lots of money. Do you think the attitude to gambling addiction should be the same as to drug addiction?
Should the government forbid gambling and treat somehow those who are addicted?
Or maybe it should be left up to an adult? I mean, should people decide on their own whether they need to gamble or not.
What do you think?

The government should not ban something, as long as there is no risk from that activity to anyone else. I am saying this because these bans can never be implemented. It will just push that particular activity underground. On the other hand, if the government legalizes and regulates that activity, then everything will be transparent and there won't be much scope for the criminal gangs.
