And what could be the possible consequences if gambling were banned in a country? Can you share some thoughts or examples?
The an increase in illegal gambling casinos and probably an increase in undocumented gambling addiction. The total disappearance of the revenue the country gets from gambling(which could be a lot).

I know this topic has something to do with a senator from the Philippines who wants to ban gambling. If the Philippines wants to reduce gambling addiction, they need to approach this like how they approached the anti-smoking campaign. From what I have read, the messaging they have pushed very hard about no smoking has had a very positive result.
