I think betting companies should invest in rehabilitation centres. They should be mandated by government to erect rehabilitation centres because gambling addicts are growing in their numbers on a daily basis.
I also think that gambling addicts need special kind of rehabilitation different from the kind of rehabilitation other mentally unstable people need. So in my opinion there should be rehabilitation centres dedicated to only gambling addicts and it should be funded by gambling companies.
-
In my country, the regulator have been actively warning to gamble moderately and its them that provide center for rehabilitation, its their responsibility as far as I know.
The casinos are likely just contributing funds for it. But this is just for formality. Casino is their business and that you can't expect them to give warning to stop gambling. When a person already needs rehabilitation it already meant he lost large amount of money and ruined his life.
-
In my opinion it is extremely important to ban gambling wholly that it can have a improved impact on a personal family social life. It not only causes financial damage but also causes financial harm but also a group of chicks per season of gambling by mental health and damaging often makes many people helpless and he becomes the highest lost crazy. When you’re a man’s addiction becomes normal to abnormal, he becomes mad and he converts it into addiction. And getting out of this addiction becomes extremely difficult so I think that it’s our responsibility to completely ban gambling who has become our responsibility now but I think it’s never possible. If you want to play gambling, you can play gambling to spend time in winning but professionalism can cause a lot of damage. So like me you can all play gambling to spend time injoining.

Which is your country? And it's good to know that betting companies can actually take responsibility and become responsible for gambling addicts, its a mess caused by then and I think it's only fair if they are made to pay for it
-
One thing I want to relate here is that everyone knows about smoking that it is bad for health but still they are able to do business because the government is giving them the opportunity to do business. But have they ever made any hospital or rehabilitation? I don't know but in most cases not. I think it may be the same with casino platform.
-
well giving back to the comunity is the least they can do to help the people affected by their business. its going to help them when thry fund these addicted gamblers.
and at the same time the casino can once again advertise. i'm sure theyd be adding their company as they sponsor the rehabilitation center.
-
I don't think so because in the site of every gambling company there's a written down notice telling people to gamble responsible that is a very good way of telling them to be careful when betting and that they should have self control over their gambling escapes so it's not by force that gambling companies force customers to gamble and get to a stage of getting addicted so mandating gambling companies to building rehabilitation centers is out of place and is not in order as every gambling is plus eighteen years and above so should have the mental capacity to control his or her activities
-
Every casino and every company can do any kind of activity to help whatever it may be, it is also necessary to know something, the casinos do not have any kind of responsibility with the cases of addiction, we must not confuse things, the casinos that help these rehabilitation centers is because some have a good heart, other casinos are dedicated to donating or do different types of help activities, everything depends on what the casino as such provides.

the only way i could see this happen is when the government see gambling addiction as social problem and they need to step in to help the people.
government building a rehabilitation center while asking for support from the local casinos wll make sense. its an easy marketing for them as well.
-
Nah, I don't think they will do that because that will surely affect their business as we all know the more gambling addicts the more money they will gain whether we like it or not it is how their business works. Here in my ciuntry I don't even have any idea if we have that kind of rehab nationwide. Seems they are to busy with corruption and politics than building such facility.

I agree, the devastating effects of gambling are far reaching and evident in our society. But adults are allowed as adults to play gamble and it will really be difficult if not impossible to ban gambling so I think what we should be intrested in is to find succur for victims of gambling

Gambling is a social problem in as much as it affects a lot of people in the society. Youths are going mad both male and female. I think government at all levels, both Local, state and federal should look into the menace of gambling by providing rehabilitation facilities for victims

I think betting companies should invest in rehabilitation centres. They should be mandated by government to erect rehabilitation centres because gambling addicts are growing in their numbers on a daily basis.
I also think that gambling addicts need special kind of rehabilitation different from the kind of rehabilitation other mentally unstable people need. So in my opinion there should be rehabilitation centres dedicated to only gambling addicts and it should be funded by gambling companies.
This is the reason they are paying taxes and it's left for the government to take care of those whom they think are addicted to gambling, of course we know that gambling site doesn't directly asked anyone to gamble and became addicted but the main focused should be that anyone gambling should gamble responsibly and avoid being addicted to gambling.
Big gambling site may decides to build or host seminar for those which they think are addicted to gambling but it's not in their core duties to start erecting building as a rehabilitation center for gambling addiction.

Some gambling companies may be interested in this, while others would feel that they have other interests. Those who have other interests should not be forced into a decision like this because instead of the government forcing them to establish and invest in these centers, the government should do so themselves.
The government should not force companies to do what they have not yet done for the citizens.
-
How can you think that? Gambling companies will always need gamblers so that the bookies' income will not stop... if there are no gamblers, the casino will not get money... building a gambling rehabilitation center is something that no casino will ever do... they need money and of course they need more gamblers to enrich themselves.
If you see a rehabilitation center for people who are addicted to gambling and it was built by one of the casinos, believe me that it is just something that is engineered and will definitely not last long....

The question is, will the government mandate them?
Come to think of it. If these casino owners build rehabilitation centers, that might affect their revenue because there will be lesser gamblers already since most of the addicted ones will get recovered and might not want to gamble anymore. Lesser gamblers = lesser revenue for the casino, and lesser casino = lesser tax to pay for the government. The government will be affected negatively, and I know that it's inhumane, but that's how business works and there's nothing that we can do about it.
Luckily, there are still rehabilitation centers that are being built although they aren't affiliated with the casino owners.
-
The betting company is not liable for any gambler who is addicted. Betting sites always provide responsible gambling guidelines and advise gamblers to bet responsibly, and gamblers who become addicted are held accountable for their irresponsibility. So, requiring betting sites to invest in rehabilitation centers forces them to support a problem that they did not create.
The fact that so many gamblers maintain control over their gambling habits suggests that addiction is a choice. If it were the betting site's fault, every gambler would be addicted because the betting site would profit more if all gamblers were addicted, but fortunately, this is not the case.
-
I dont think that betting companies should invest in rehabilitation centers because betting companies are not responsible for one persons greed or wrongly takes decisions. Its persons own decision to start gambling, to continue and to spend money. It is enough that they warn about addiction. Otherwise every other company, business or activity must be responsible for all negative that might happen. Sport must invest in hospitals because people get injured. Food companies must invest in stadiums and sport, because people can get fat. It will be an endless list.

Good initiatives, it should be tagged cooperate social responsibility, after all they make so much money from gamblers. Betting is a big industry and I agree that they should as well give back to the society

Even in companies that warn and strictly implements safety still has HMO for their workers. I agree that people have been warned but you cannot ignore completely that betting poses lots of risk and as such there's need to put rehabilitation facilities on ground

i don’t think so i mean why is it their responsibility? lol
it’s like a cigarette company having a lung center it’s contradicting i do think that there should be rehabilitation centers for gambling addicts but it doesn’t have to be gambling companies to make one or invest in if they do it’s like they are acknowledging how bad gambling can get which i know a lot of companies do not want to
we have always known that there are risks so the moment you start gambling that choice is yours and the responsibility no longer lies on the company

The rehabilitation centres or facilities won't gamblers from gambling vafter all hospitals don't stop people from falling sick after treatment. The rehabilitation facilities will help gamblers fight addiction. If all gamblers are responsible gamblers casino companies will still make so much money

Yes, Rehabilitation is not a place that can change personality and stop a person from such vices directly but offers assistance so that a person has some cheque on his actions. As it is mentioned earlier, whenever a person has to undo something, which has become fairly habitual, the environment plays an essential role in this phase. Still, the last conclusion relates to oneself, to decide if it is high time to change something or just fall back into the previous sinful way. This means that if all the participants in this activity are fully aware of the repercussions for making any decision, then fairness would be achieved without any of them feeling that they are dealt an unjust raw deal. The worst of all is how one can go on living a calmer life without stumbling at something which is hard to avert.

While its true that rehab couldn't change a person, the habit will be stopped even for a while and this could become permanent when the addict get used to the feeling that its okay not to do it anymore.
Its just a matter of getting the addict out the rabit hole. And then replace the habit of something new that could change his life style. There will be a good life ahead despite how badly they made it in the past.

It is good to know that there are rehabilitation centers for gambling addicts in your country as in my country there are none that i know of though they warned everyone to gamble moderately but for me warning is not enough for a person not to become addicted to gambling.
-
I think betting companies should invest in rehabilitation centres. They should be mandated by government to erect rehabilitation centres because gambling addicts are growing in their numbers on a daily basis.
That will discourage casinos from doing business with countries with that kind of policy; its enough that they flag their users that they think are going overboard and warn their users about the harm of getting addicted to gambling.
I also think that gambling addicts need special kind of rehabilitation different from the kind of rehabilitation other mentally unstable people need. So in my opinion there should be rehabilitation centres dedicated to only gambling addicts and it should be funded by gambling companies
There are rehabilitation facilities that are dedicated to gambling addiction because every addiction has different cases and specialties, but it costs a lot of money, and I doubt if the casinos can keep up with that, Sometimes casinos also incur losses in their operation.

I think warning people about addiction and other problems of excess gambling is enough. Adults must be responsible for their actions. For me it is enough to be warned, I dont want someone to intrude in my life and teach me how to live, give advices what I can do or what not. When I gamble, I dont want something or someone to be like a non-stop alarm, telling me about addiction. When I am about to gamble, this means I have already measured risks and took a decision to start. And if casinos starts to invest in rehabs, this will only show that the business they are doing is already harmful. Bad impact on an image.

Casinos will close if they lose, and if they keep printing money, they will stay and survive... the building will be more luxurious, the services will be more numerous, the games displayed will be more varied... yes, a casino that has survived for more than 2 years, it is very positive that the casino is not losing money even though many people have won big prizes at the casino....
some casino , easy to make 1 big winner to advertise, and it is very easy to cover with the 10,000 losers they also make... yes, bookies don't want to lose, so the casino can operate to pay its employees...
The casino is actually able to build a place for rehabilitation.. but that will only reduce its income because many people will start to hate gambling if the building is built... even when you go to a casino, especially in Vegas... you won't see a clock there, because they want you to spend your time in the casino without remembering the time.
-

I would like to add that if casinos are commissioned to build rehabilitation centers and maintain them free for those who become addicted to gambling, gamblers will have a reason to gamble more because they have free rehabilitation facilities that the casinos put up. Now that will encourage gamblers to gamble more because they will not have to shoulder the cost of getting rehabilitated; they need not worry about that.

Your thinking is really good and rehabilitation should be done for addicted gamblers, but I have doubts about how many gambling companies will do these things.
Because if they do this, gambling companies will reduce their own revenue. And I don't think they will make any investment to reduce their own revenue. And even if some gambling platforms do this, they will have a positive marketing purpose behind it, but how effective they will keep it is actually doubtful for me.

i'm sure not all gambling companies will support this as its going to expose them as the reason why people are miserable while they lose their money gambling in their business.
but it would also be more irresponsible of them to just keep people playing without them at least contributing to restoration of their life. but ye i'm sure they are up to take money form customers, hard to believe they are giving away.
-
Government are the ones that are suppose to help addicted gamblers have a rehabilitation home by adding it in their regulations that casinos should pay a certain amount of money annually to build such pkace and for the welfare of the addicts. But I believe that the family of this addicts should also bs responsible for their health too.
-

The argument here is simple, the casino shops are responsible for the level of addiction you find in the society as a result of gambling. Shouldn't they help fight this addiction as a matter of responsibility?
-
Yeah, those rehab centers would look good for their image. Casinos will spend on rehab while telling the public they are also doing community service. This will show people that they are responsible and this same people will soon patronize their gambling platform ;D
Is this not similar to a local politician doing some charity works while stealing millions from the public funds?
-
The argument here is simple, the casino shops are responsible for the level of addiction you find in the society as a result of gambling. Shouldn't they help fight this addiction as a matter of responsibility?
The answer is simple: NO.
Why? The casino does not force us to play, the casino does not force us to bet large amounts, the casino only offers its gaming/entertainment services with the option to win and/or lose, so it is up to the casino whether or not it wants to collaborate with that option you mention, but it is not a duty, that is what must be made very clear.
We are the ones who always make the decisions, nobody forces us, that is why I repeat it.

I don't think it's anyone responsibility to build a rehab for gambling person. Does gambling makes anyone sick or mad to be opening one? If it's then I think the government would have ban casino for long because of the effect on people. It's addiction thag people get and that's there own responsibility to take because there is a term and conditions on every casino they accepted.
If you are gambling for money, stay away from gambling. If you are gambling because you have some financial issues, stay away from gambling and focus on the main things that will give you money and not gambling that can take away everything from you again.

the government is regulating the casinos, they are the ones only giving them the license to operate which means if a person causes a family to be dysfunctional and their number is increasing, i think its going to be a problem of the government.
having such problem will make the government take action and ask the betting companies to help after all they both cause all these problem as well.

How do you want the government should regulate gambling and Casino. Most of the time, tbe casinos that you see working in a country are most time registered and recognize, the rest are illegal because they are not registered neither do they pay taxes, and yet the people still patronize them, you dint have to blame the government, it's the people that want to use them are to be blame.
The government are trying with regulation, some casino has age restrictions, kyc requirements and some even have option to suspend your account or deactivate it for some time if a gambler is not feeling comfortable again with gambling, some casino can suspend your account if they found out you are over gambling, all these are to help gamblers.
-
If the government should mandate that betting companies to have rehabilitation centers meant for gambling addicts, that means gambling should be banned completely because a country can't have what destroys the lives of its citizens to be welcomed in their country.
I will tell you that this will not be possible because gambling has already warned that gamblers should gamble responsibly and be above 18 years old. If someone finds themselves to be a gambling addicts, they should blame themselves for that, not the other way around because betting companies have nothing to do with that because they didn't force anyone to bet always or take them as ways to make easy money

Ideal but not practical. They can't ban alcohol and cigarettes that destroys the body. They can't ban mining that destroys the natural environment. How could the Government stop the main sources of public funds from taxes and licenses? Officials wouldn't want to stop the companies that fills up their pockets ;D
-
One thing I want to relate here is that everyone knows about smoking that it is bad for health but still they are able to do business because the government is giving them the opportunity to do business. But have they ever made any hospital or rehabilitation? I don't know but in most cases not. I think it may be the same with casino platform.
. Cigarette shops are not littered all over the place the way betting shops are. I have never seen a place where cigarettes are manufactured and besides people are more likely to go into betting than to smoke because betting generates income
-
I think those whobare part of the problem should be part of the solution. Betting companies should either invest in rehabilitation centres or limit their operations. A lot of people are victims
-

Actually, if we find all over the world a businessman who don't need profit then we will find zero person.
For example if we get lunch on a restaurant the restaurant owner always try to make their food very tasty so that we can go back there again and again and he can book his profit and expand his business.
And same case for the social media and the mobile companies they always try to make new features so that we don't lose our interest on it and become more addicted on these so that the owner of these can make their business volume more.
And here in the gambling word situation will be same and that will be also natural.
-
Actually, if we find all over the world a businessman who don't need profit then we will find zero person.
a business’s purpose is literally to make profit it is built with the intention of making profit all the money that is put into a business is expected to come back double otherwise the business will just stop operating because you will just be wasting money
And same case for the social media and the mobile companies they always try to make new features so that we don't lose our interest on it and become more addicted on these so that the owner of these can make their business volume more.
And here in the gambling word situation will be same and that will be also natural.
are you basically saying that gambling companies wouldn’t want to add a feature that would cure or prevent addiction? cause yeah you are right the best they can do is warn you but it’s not their responsibility anymore if you get addicted

Its a problem the government didn't create and if those that created this problem can solve it then why involve the government? No company likes Responsibility of any kind. The companies should be compelled to carry out the responsibility

It will last as long as the betting company last. If the betting company decides to close the rehabilitation centre then the government will sanction it by closing the betting company

This is not logical, why would betting company even be responsible for gamblers greed? Look on this from perspective of different business. Lets say you have a restaurant. It is popular, but some people prefer to eat extra and gain extra weight. They become fat, and government force you to buy them subscription to a gym. And if they dont buy it, government will close your restaurant. You think that would be fair?

There is no doubt that the gambling industry does have a vested interest in the preservation of its operations, and that is undeniable. They can understand how the existing context is further envision to maintain the attraction of large number of people and raise great hopes which may not always meet the anticipated prospects. When an item has become an element of their business dealings, then the factor of profit is never far behind. Hence, awareness of this behaving may be something that one should take into consideration to prevent it from worsening. It is normal for one to have interest on something but if this interest is left unwarranted, it turns out to have negative repercussions. A person’s well-being should not be anchored on something that is pegged on the lottery. Such an effort if good looking, does not mean that we should not try to look at all the possibilities that lies behind it.

are you basically saying that gambling companies wouldn’t want to add a feature that would cure or prevent addiction? cause yeah you are right the best they can do is warn you but it’s not their responsibility anymore if you get addicted
In the current time you will see that most of the casino speacially the new casino they add a page in their footer of their website about the responsible gambling even I don't want to say anything negative on it but even they were adding this to their site they were trying to make an positive vibe specially for their own marketing, like you and me and the other most people will definitely be attract on these casino where this kinds of thing get priority because we all want to stay on the safe side and the mean time we choose those casino and play on them and ultimately they were get profit even they were promote that responsible gambling.

How can you think that? Gambling companies will always need gamblers so that the bookies' income will not stop... if there are no gamblers, the casino will not get money... building a gambling rehabilitation center is something that no casino will ever do... they need money and of course they need more gamblers to enrich themselves.
If you see a rehabilitation center for people who are addicted to gambling and it was built by one of the casinos, believe me that it is just something that is engineered and will definitely not last long....
It will last as long as the betting company last. If the betting company decides to close the rehabilitation centre then the government will sanction it by closing the betting company
I think it would be commendable if the problem is solved by motivating betting companies rather than imposing any responsibility on them. Because betting companies are helping the government with their(revenue) finances, it can be a threat to them if something is forced on them. Although they are capable of running big charitable organizations with their help if they want, it is better to take their own initiative and do something like this. If someone starts once, other companies will also try to do better.

Do we have free cancer treatment from cigarette manufacturers?
Do we have free rehab as well as complete free medical care from the liquor manufacturers?
The why the gambling is the problem created by the casinos not the people who does that?
I am not defending the casinos here but addiction is an individual's choice so if they make wrong choice then they should pay for it.
-
They might but i don't think they will, unless the government required them to do so. Most casinos terms have that kind of thinking that they are not responsible to someone's decision to gamble thus they have notes for responsible gambling on the platform

I think betting companies should invest in rehabilitation centres. They should be mandated by government to erect rehabilitation centres because gambling addicts are growing in their numbers on a daily basis.
I also think that gambling addicts need special kind of rehabilitation different from the kind of rehabilitation other mentally unstable people need. So in my opinion there should be rehabilitation centres dedicated to only gambling addicts and it should be funded by gambling companies.
yes i agree with you,betting companies should work in hand with expert therapist along side with the rehab for those addicted ones to help provide a good counseling and assesments of progress.

I oppose bookies sponsoring rehabilitation programmes because bookies cannot be held responsible for gambler addiction. Bookies should instead implement restrictions to help gamblers protect their earnings, as prevention is preferable to cure.
The fact that not all addiction cases are revealed means that not all addicts will be in rehabilitation, and thus the addiction problem will continue.

I agreed with you because gambling is not a compulsion or mandatory something someone should get the seller involved, and as I know gambling is not a game for everyone but only for those who are interested and can gamble responsible. Rehabilitation center should be provided by government and not gambling site as I know that gambling site aren't in any way compelling Gambler to come gamble.

If a gambling company engages in any service-based work, that is their own business. They can invest money to support the government in good works for their advertising or business growth, but in such work, there is generally no obligation on the part of any gambling companies. There is no restriction if a gambling company does something of its own free will, and there is no restriction if it does not do something. That is why I do not think that we should impose anything on the general public on this issue.

Its just an option. Its not their obligation to make it their business to help addicted fellow. If they wanna work together with the government all the better but the first gambling company who would do this might just benefit more.
Because there might just be changes in the future where governments will only give licenses to a gambling company whenever they are tied to help addicted gamblers. This could be mandatory by then.

You could be right and of course there is a sense to what you said but, from what I senses only big and large gambling company could want to do this because as we know, this is meant to be a government responsibility because those gambling site do pay taxes. Government in their own should build those houses as they are also taxing those gambling site, but it would be cool if gambling site or 1-4 of them team together to build a rehabilitation center, this could position them in a faster way and attract more gamblers also gain recognition across the globe as the best gambling companies.

Maybe not to that extent, in my opinion, but somehow, they should give back to the community that they are in and make sure that their players are checking themselves and making sure that they are not risking too much and that they are not addicted.

Betting company are already doing that by warming people not to take gambling to the point where it becomes a problem to you every gambling company is in support of responsible gambling practice where they will advice gambler's not to gamble with money that they can't afford to lose so I think telling betting companies to invest in rehabilitation centers for the sake of gambler's health is not in order because before you engage in gambling it's already written that it's plus 18 so it's assumed that your mote that eighteen year

Gambling sites do not focus much on the fight against addiction because they are constantly on the receiving end when gamblers become addicted. This is similar to smoking companies claiming that smokers are more likely to die young, but they continue to produce smoke.
If gambling sites want to ensure that gamblers are liberated, they must be intentional and assist gamblers by limiting the number of times they gamble daily.
-
Addicted gamblers fuel their business, it makes no sense for them to invest in rehab centers. Anyhow, I agree with what Findingnemo said earlier, it's completely upon individual and none else can be held responsible for one's own choices, it's not like betting companies force anyone to play there, sure they may use shady marketing techniques to entice customers but end of the day it's still individual's choice to go there.

Yes, the gambling industry is in a very advantageous position here because they make money through people playing games while on the other hand people get addicted which should not be the case. If there is an intention to assist then there ought to be something that is being done to avoid the players cultivating behaviours that are not beneficial to themselves. Issuing warnings is not sufficient when there exist no efficient subdivisions like playtime or enhanced self-control measures apart from the general advice. For this reason, if an industry goes on business as usual without having proper and sincere interest in protecting the consumers, then what happens is not only repercussions that an individual alone bears, but a societal issue.

Having the understanding of the fact that most of the gambling platforms are so well to do, it's never a bad idea if they can all take it up as a challenge in educating for this through campaigns and rendering reinforcement on rehabilitation centers as part of their own community development support, each industries should have this common sense of belongings, that everything that they do should also reflect a positive impact on the lives of others, especially those in need.

Every business does have a social responsibility to the society, and i particularly and specifically include gambling platforms as these ought to benefit the wider society and not just serve the purpose of making money. Extending education to the people and supporting such rehabilitation centres may be a good signal that this industry has social responsibility for the social effects resulting from these practises. If implemented in this way, there will be a balance that will be created in between business and community. The other positive effects of participation in educating players concerning the risks involved are also likely to bring positive changes with them for the individuals and also the rest of society. Finally, each action contemplated in this paper will mean much if it can be of positive impact to many individuals.
