That's right, and the average person who is acutely addicted to anything will affect his environment and even society, no matter gambling for pleasure or profit, if indeed someone is in addiction they will always have a great influence on him on society, as well as playing games, or cigarettes or anything, especially gambling which is very close to finance, even though they can play on a demo account they feel they have no sensation and they only need money to gamble.
I saw a person who was willing to steal just because he wanted to get money to gamble, and it did not happen once or twice in my neighborhood, quite sad and detrimental to the surrounding community.
Indeed, with those who are addicted, other people around them may be affected by the bad effects of gambling suffered by the addict. such as a relationship where the addict may borrow money and that will usually make other people uncomfortable with the behavior of the perpetrator who certainly doesn't borrow money once, but even so the perpetrator will not really care about what other people affected by it feel, because the perpetrator will only focus on their desire, namely gambling again even though they have run out of money, but they can do anything to make their desire come true.
of course gambling really involves money, because money is the main thing in gambling where if we have money we can do it but if we don't have money we won't be able to do it, unfortunately those who no longer have money and are addicted often do anything to be able to do it. gambling again, either borrowing or selling his personal property. Of course this is not good, therefore in my opinion gambling is bad for society but not completely, because the main fault lies with the players.
