keep in mind that gambling is also illegal in south korea. so my point is, everyone eventually finds a way.
You are absolutely correct that is the real truth about it. However, sometimes I used to wonder whether those government are doing the right thing, noing fully well that humans are always humans. Though, there is no how banning gambling in a country would easily work for everybody, it is quite obvious that gamblers would definitely going to look for a way to manover. Because even till now there are countries who is against Bitcoin and other things, but even as that people are still doing it in a coded way.
If gambling has been illegal for long time, then there is a valid reason why they don't want to see their citizens gamble in the country. I mean, generation has passed, government has been change and none of them made an attempt to reverse the law or if there's any aspirant running for the leadership to change all of that. As long as it doesn't have to do with human right abuse, I have nothing against how they rule about gambling in their countries and how they want things should be.
In south Korea, there is limitations of gambling but what about their economy? It's doing well. Talk about their job opportunities, they have many of them in their countries that even immigrants are taking up some spaces. I don't really think that gambling is really a problem to human and economy existence, if you want to gamble you can do that in your own house with families and friends, at least nobody is going to prosecute anyone for having for with family.
