Do you believe that the Deposit threshold can minimize gambling addiction in the poor sector?!
That’s what our lawmakers believe. Right now, you can deposit as low as 1 dollar in our local casino through our local e-wallet, and because of this, many poor people become addicted to games like Bingo, scatter, and other luck-based games.
So, they are enacting a law that increases the deposit threshold from $1 to $175, making it harder for these individuals to fund their accounts and play.
It could only work for a while, but then we would have those gamblers who are really addicted, the chronic addicts looking for any means to try and fund their accounts. This may just increase the desire and action for more money from these addicted gamblers, who may even decide to get themselves involved in terrible acts just to raise money for gambling.
Right, there could be gamblers who can find loopholes in this so called deposit threshold. And as far as $1 goes, not sure why is that the minimum, I mean you can even buy anything for that amount, let more play and gamble.
If they really wanted to really out law gambling, then simply ban it. But the government might not do that because the backers of this casinos might have been paying them millions or billions and so they needed them. Gambling addiction in any country is rampant, and it's really very hard to stop just by increasing the amount of the minimum deposit.
