Gambling can only help the economy if the owner will legalize their business and submit all necessary requirements to get a license as well pay all the taxes without doing any illegalities when it comes in their obligations to the government. But what if she other greedy businessmen who didn't comply those important things and all pay corrupt politician as a bribe for their protection do you think it's beneficial to the countries economy?
That's the reason why some countries heavily regulated gambling and targeted those illegal operators. It was being shown on some news especially in the European region.
You are right. It's useless that a gambling activity in a certain country is heavily demanded but there are companies that are running under the table.
The government can't take advantage fully of the possible revenue they can get from these gambling operators. I just wonder why they just did this now instead of doing actions prior to pandemic.
That's unfair to those business who've been staying faithful towards the government regulations. Then we've heard stories like that bribing some under the table money. How did this continue to exist, is there any independent groups who can expose this kind of illegalities? I just can't imagine how gambling really tempt government officials deal with it badly, and authority can't solve it when conspiracy still exists.
