gambling is often seen as a harmful habit. my question to you is, in a completely free society, should someone be prevented from providing gambling services for the good of society?
from an individual point of view, it is everyone's choice to gamble or not to gamble. the management of your money is entirely up to you in a physical sense. but that doesn't change the fact that some people are going to go bankrupt, their lives are going to be very difficult with the existence of gambling. if it was up to you to allow gambling, knowing that it is inevitable when enough people are involved in gambling, would you consider it ethical?
do you think that things that can harm a person through their choices should be prevented, or is everyone responsible for their own decisions as long as they are not forced to make them?
As banks are not disrupt and have legality to function like any other government agencies in any country, so is gambling and its activities are in a country, it is your choice that you make individually.
Gambling has being since time memorial as fun and source of income and entertainment which people make their livelihood from, it's also give sound health.
In our various believe we cannot do away with it.
What do the banks do? They collect the money of the people and make money out of it. The important thing is to take our money we're being charged. If that's ethical and has the legality to function with the support of the government, we cannot blame gambling, which is a business similar to the banking industry. As said, it is the individual's responsibility to take it in the right way rather than getting addicted and making life distressful.
