With gambling gaining awareness each day and the population of those gambling increasing it's calls for concern as many has fallen victim to this money sucking game that makes people not to save their money but loss it.
But let's take a critical look at this very sensitive matter called gambling has anyone really made it from gambling, is gambling worth it and if really anyone has made it through gambling can he/she proudly tell the younger ones that gambling is what going into.
Infact gambling has made many to go broke and live in poverty many has lost their life savings and even pension in gambling, I am of the view that gambling should be controlled by the government of each country and that there should be a maximum amount of money one should use in gambling.

A persons choice on whether or not to gamble is theirs and theirs alone, the poor should not go into gambling as a means to make it big, such an obsession can be blinding, leading to the person loosing everything thing they have.
A person should only gamble if they are financially stable, and can afford to loose the money, it a risk and there are thrills that come with risks, it should never be your final resort for money.
when you say the government should control the amount a person spends on gambling, is that like their daily spending on gambling or what they should spend in their lifetime?? Because if it's daily, people will still go broke over it.
The issue should be that if a person cannot control how much they spend on gambling, then they should not gamble at all.
