now, I have a question, do you think the man is entirely at fault or someone should also be responsible?

It's not his fault he received the money, but I'm damn sure it's entirely his fault for doing what he did with it. And Jesus, I don't think COVID relief funds could have mistakenly ended up in worse hands than a gambler. He says he's going to pay it all back, but somehow I've got my doubts about that.

I agree is not his fault and he was wrong to use all part of the morning wasteful. It is his opportunity not to gamble it but to investing it in real business to get profit and maybe the government will be happy with him and help him more but he wasted itin gambling think to have more Grin

Depending on how hardcore a gambler he is, the government may have to wait a long-ass time before they see that money again.

The delay can be along time and government not able to waste a longer more for the people need the relief to die with hunger. Solution is to look else where to solve the debt problem because the money sent to the addict gambler has been used. The people can't die of food.

They could easily do what the US does and just create new money out of thin air, write a new check and send it to the right people this time.

Ok get it. Maybe one option is print new money if no means available.
