If some things must be banned to reduce or stop crime in our societies, then let the government first succeed in banning the production of Alcohols, hard drugs, cigarettes and weeds etc. All this things cause more crimes to be committed in our societies than gambling addiction.
Looks like you are exaggerating broo.. If you speculate that the government must first succeed in banning the production of alcohol, hard drugs, cigarettes and marijuana and so on. This still provides benefits, especially when talking about narcotics, it is very beneficial in the pharmaceutical field. It is not the production that must be prohibited, but the distribution that must be controlled because many people still abuse it.
likewise with gambling. it is not the gambling activity that must be stopped because this will be rejected by various parties, but in gambling site advertising it must be controlled because I reiterate that those who are and are involved in social media are not only adults but also many children who are not old enough. So promotions carried out by gambling sites must be controlled because this can attract people who are not old enough. have not been able to control yourself properly and think carefully. can join in gambling.
