Is Gambling a Vice?

[0t3p0t]

Gambling is a harmless activity but individuals give it a negative connotation because of the way they approach it. I think instead of making people believe that gambling is a vice, people should rather be sensitized. The bookies should help to regulate the amount people gamble and forget about their capitalist mentality.

It will become a vice for me if we get into it irresponsibly I mean if we don't treat it as an entertainment. When we become greedy that is where gambling is more of a vice than just for fun. But this all depends on how people or gamblers see and treat gambling. For me this is based on our personal preferences and also depends on how people will judge us as we all know they always have something to say even if it is non of their business.

As long as gambling is only for entertainment, of course, it will not have a detrimental effect, because entertainment means setting aside funds to have fun, not to make a profit. But if, as you say, it has led to making a profit, it has gone beyond its main intention and is no longer entertainment. But it is already looking for profit and if you lose, you will use other funds, which should not be used, but are used.
It has become an addiction like someone who is addicted to drugs and is difficult to cure, it will only do harm.
Everything is ultimately returned to the individual to reveal the gambling problem, because the only person who can experience and know is oneself.

This will be a good call for the Bookies to play a more active role in regulating how much people gamble. This can only be achievable if the Bookies shift away from a capitalist mentality (profit-making mindset) towards a more socially responsible stance. By encouraging Bookies to prioritize gamblers' mental health over profit-making, then certainly the negative consequences of gambling could be mitigated.

Gambling addiction is an addiction that can affect a person's thinking patterns and damage the life of the perpetrator and the surrounding community.
Gambling technology in various forms makes it easier for people to get caught up in gambling addiction.
And it is young people who are the main targets.
Moreover, those who promote are people who have many followers on social media.

So gambling has more negative effects than positive ones

There is no difference between a gambling addiction and an addiction to drug use. In the end, it is both difficult to get out of the trap of continuing to do it again. It must be admitted that gambling operators already know people's characteristics, so they can influence the way the game is presented, so that people are always curious and want to continue playing it.

Gambling has crossed ages, both young and old will be the same, although currently they are more focused on young people who are easily influenced because their emotions are still unstable and don't forget the role of influencers and social media is very important in being able to ensnare them into gambling.

I agree, gambling only has a negative side. That's why gambling can only be done by those who are already established in life so that it doesn't interfere with their financial activities, because those who are established are usually looking for entertainment and to relieve work fatigue, not for profit, very different from other gamblers who are looking for luck.  which will be difficult to get.

Today, there are battles in different countries about whether gambling should be allowed or criminalized. I think gambling is a vice and should be criminalized because the disadvantages outweigh any potential benefits. Gambling addicts are known to commit crimes to pay debts or have mood disorder which most time causes violence and strain in relationships. Gambling increases poverty as the poor are the most likely to gamble away what little money they have. The lure of big money has pushed many gamblers to steal. Some have even committed suicide causing indelible pains in the minds of others.

I will share some hilarious photos which depict that gambling is taking a toll on society.

Do you think gambling is a vice and should be criminalized?

[MUGNIA]

gambling It's not bad if it's just for a moment's entertainment, but back to each individual, how do they perceive and prioritize gambling, because most gamblers will definitely commit criminal acts when they are addicted to gambling and don't have the funds, whatever they do to be able to gamble

gambling It's not bad if it's just for a moment's entertainment, but back to each individual,

If the concept is for Entertainment and Fun, everyone can also judge it well because everyone also needs entertainment, but gambling is entertainment that uses money and causes adrenaline to increase drastically.
From the presence of this adrenaline that results in us being able to do anything when we need gambling but we don't have the funds, and with all the efforts that gamblers do that can lead to negative things such as crime, etc.

how do they perceive and prioritize gambling, because most gamblers will definitely commit criminal acts when they are addicted to gambling and don't have the funds, whatever they do to be able to gamble

From here we can learn that gambling tends to be more negative, even though you say gambling is for entertainment and fun, the negative effects are quite large.
Except, for brands that gamble, they must have a concept of gratitude and limit funds because every day these gamblers gamble and must be limited, winnings must also be limited and gambling with losses must also be limited.

Maybe the conclusion is that gambling is enough for entertainment, but don't do it excessively and must be limited and don't forget to be grateful whether you win or lose.

To avoid the consequences of gambling, of course, everyone who wants to gamble for entertainment must have special funds that do not interfere with their daily needs or are already financially stable. But the unfortunate thing is that people who gamble can barely fulfill their needs and still do that, so what you say is true is that, in the end they will commit criminal acts to fulfill their needs due to their gambling addiction. And not infrequently that happened and even all the assets he had were eventually lost

Do you think gambling is a vice and should be criminalized?

Gambling, when approached as a leisure activity and handled responsibly, can be a form of entertainment that adds excitement to life. It's a social experience that, for many, is no different from enjoying a night out or a concert, with the added possibility of winning. It's all about balance and not letting it tip into excess.

As long as the aim is for entertainment, of course it will be understandable and tolerable. The problem is that if you can no longer differentiate between entertainment and needs, it is certainly very dangerous and full of risks that will occur. If gambling has become a necessity that must continue and the perpetrators themselves do not have the funds prepared for this need, then disaster will occur. All means will be used to fulfill these needs, so there must always be protection that must be taken before you want to gamble.
If you want to gamble, you have to prepare yourself financially so that it doesn't interfere with your daily activities.
