What do you think? Why is there such a different attitude to gambling products and will it ever change?

Why do people have different attitudes towards gambling? that's because there are quite a lot of social problems that come from gambling such as domestic violence, suicide, theft, and other criminal acts. Compared to the lottery, there are not many criminal cases caused by this, because usually people who buy tickets use spare money which if they lose it won't be too much of a problem for them. But unlike gambling, many players are addicted to this. When they are addicted and bankrupt this is where problems start to arise, because gamblers will become more irrational and tend to use various methods so that their gambling desires can be fulfilled and this is what causes many criminal acts to occur. So it's no wonder that many people globally don't really like gambling.

I think why do those who gamble just by buying the lottery look calmer because they can use the smallest amount of money, just 1 ticket a day to try their luck while gambling like in casino games and sports betting is impossible just by playing with $1, because the casino has a minimum deposit that is above that value, and I do not agree that gambling will make a person different, and gambling is not the only reason for someone to be bad because all actions taken without responsibility are the characteristics of a bad person, corruptors are bad persons, drug-addicted can be bad people, so we cannot assume that all bad things happen to someone because he is a gambling addict, he could become an addict because he first experienced mental problems and gambling is the escape

I know a lot of gamblers who are very calm people,funny and who like to have a good time,they don't get mad that quick even when they lose a huge amount of money and these are the persons who are not corrupted nor use drugs or substances or alcohol except a couple of drinks as a max.There are unfortunately also other people who while they gamble are calm but if someone talks to them while they are gambling and losing money they lose it completely and starts yelling or behaving in a not appropriate way and these are the problematic gamblers,it does not necessarily mean that they are prone to alcohol or drugs or corruption but this second type is of course more prone to such things.
