The gambling industry has been growing exponentially for the past many years and it is online type of gambling that can be making big record of revenues and I am sure this can be true in all countries where gambling is regulated and allowed by the government to flourish. Gambling is one of the biggest sources of tax and that is why even if the government can foresee the many ill-effects of gambling they still allow them to operate. Just like other bad vices like smoking, overeating, drinking alcohol, there are many people who are addicted to gambling even allowing themselves to be destroyed in the process. One thing for sure is that the government has the big responsibility to control the spread of gambling but it is, of course, a big failure on this aspect as it is the receiving end of money coming from the gambling industry. Now, the best way to mitigate and control gambling falls on the family where education should start. The problem is that we have many failed families in the society that left many young people get swallowed by destructive vices. I am not sure if our education system is playing a big role in educating their students on the many side effects of gambling or they are just turning a blind eye to this issue. In summary, all of these situations can mean one thing: gambling is a good business to get into as more and more people are falling prey to its trap.
