Do you believe that the Deposit threshold can minimize gambling addiction in the poor sector?!
Yes, it has a very good chance of reducing the activity of gamblers or poor gamblers from being addicted too, it's a good strategy adopted but the fact is it denies the people access to what they desire which is very bad too in a moral sense. But if the government believes that their people are lossing it to gambling then they can reduce or control the situation with this strategy.
No. People who meet the deposit threshold can just look for another casino to play.
This is a law that will be enacted which means it's going to be imposed on all casinos licenced to operate in the country so there is no way out for the poor except for those who are smart enough to use VPN or any kind of tools to escape the law which is also another breaking of the law that has a punishment if caught.
Gambling addiction is a matter of self-control. Even if each casino minimizes the deposit threshold to $10, people who are hooked on gambling will always look for ways to gamble. It is not the amount of deposit that makes a person addicted to gambling; it is its exposure and lack of self-control or personal vulnerability that trigger gambling addiction.
If the minimum deposit is increased its definitely going to affect a lot of people hence it will have effect on the gambling activities of the people in that country. Even though it's a matter of self control but this is a matter of national control.
