Do casinos profit from addiction, or do they truly promote "responsible gaming" as they claim?
As what we have seen, casinos are profiting from gamblers who can't control themselves and play as much money as they can and think that they can bring the house down. But we all know that the longer we play, the higher the chance that we are going to lose anyway.
Probably there are casinos that really have programs like self-exclusion and outright banning of players and promoting 'responsible gaming'.
But you have to ask yourself, If casinos eliminated all problem gamblers, would they still be profitable?
It's anyone's problem if they get addicted to gambling, you must have believed that you will make alot from gambling that it started to affect your daily thinking, this is the reason why you turn into an addict, this is not the casinos fault obviously, having a money making agenda mindset on gambling is always a suicide.
I said this to a friend he got pissed and he didn't reply my messages via WhatsApp for a long time, now he is back and I bet he had learnt his lesson, we never talked about it again but mare looking at him I knew that gambling have teach some senses into him.
Let's say that gamblers become disciplined and no single gamblers is an addict, do you think that casinos won't survive? Every dollar counts and that's why casinos will never be a bad business, all they need is gamblers, either disciplined or addicted they don't care.
