Why do they allow gambling to such extent when they already know how expensive it can be to the society? Why to allow casinos at the first place? It is because governments collect hefty taxes from this industry in order to let it run, the same goes to drugs and alcohol. If we expect the change, we need to be the change and start taking the first step so to let addicted gamblers come back under the category of normal gamblers who know and understand their limits.
What exactly do you mean by "to let addicted gamblers come back under the category of normal gamblers"? Do you want addicted players to come back to the tables? In my opinion this would be a very bad idea, because this would make these poor people worse off if they are able to gamble again.
You misunderstood my point. I meant that the gamblers should be stopped from playing a lot and let them be capped at some point so they will not lose what they can if they continue to gamble. So if this cap is imposed and they have lost that much, they will not be allowed to gamble for some time which may move the addiction of gambling out of them.
Addiction is a habit that won't stop in a day. It is a gradual process for a habit to be stopped. Trying to use force for an addict may not work rather it can get worsened because bad habit fights back. Even when you take the casino or gambling office away from the gambler, he can find the place.
And this is why this market is profitable due to that kind of behavior or on when people do really end up on being an addicted person.Gambling business wont really be generating
lots or big revenues if addiction doesn't really exist on the first place and since human beings is highly reactive to money or when it comes to that then these are just common behavior
for someone to see.We've seen on how gambling business do share up with bigger allocation in terms of taxes which other or most business cant really level with it
because its of course on the revenue they are making out of those addicted gamblers.
