should gambling be completely banned?

[LUCKMCFLY]

Sometimes I wonder, what is the reason why a country wants to Prohibit gambling? I think it goes against the human rights of people , because it is a form of distortion, and yes, although it is something that can be dangerous, it is an activity that is done for Adults , that is, adults who are already responsible for their actions, it is not something that should be seen as bad, so if a country or a ruler prohibits this, I would say that he is a very selfish person and that he should not always do things this way, because he is putting or putting his way of thinking before other people having the right or freedom to choose.

Maybe they are trying to protect people from themselves, because a lot of gamblers suffer from gambling addiction and can't even help themselves recover from it because the addiction has grown really deep inside of them, so the government feel the only or vest way to help such persons would be to permanently ban gambling activities within that jurisdiction to avoid further damage on them, even when it means infringing on a few of their rights to protect them from the dangers of gambling addiction.

Yes, it's somehow against the rights of the citizens who live in a country but it depends on government to take decisions and no one in public can take any action against it.

I believe most countries prohibit gambling because they believe it can be harmful for their citizens as it can cause addiction to youngsters.

But there could be many other reasons because of which a country may ban gambling, however the main reason may always be to prevent youngsters from getting addicted to it.

[LUCKMCFLY]

They're just preventing something bigger, it seems, because if you want to eliminate it then it's something that's not easy to do.

Some facts are even surprising, where the government prohibits gambling in a country, but there are individuals who have power who can directly collaborate with gambling owners. I think things like this are also complicated, because on the one hand the government prohibits it, but on the other hand there are individuals who play and seek personal gain.

That's correct, there are always people who benefit and it's a business, and in all these types of things there's always money, so in this order of ideas things can be seen like this, also in governments there are always inflows of money that come from other places that are suspicious, and in this case everything that has to do with games of chance there is always money there and a lot of it, currently in my country the government enjoys very large inflows of money from physical casinos, as they were prohibited now the business is Lucrative enough so that they can continue opening the doors to these businesses, but with such great conditions.

If the government can manage it very well and with strict and good regulations, then the government can be said to be able to manage it very well. Because they will definitely find a lot of rejection, because in reality not everyone agrees with gambling.

However, it is not easy to ensure that all parties are not harmed, the challenge is that it comes from rejection, especially when rejection comes from a majority vote.

Well in every democratic system there must be a correlation between government and congress, I understand that congress is where the enators and deputies are, who are the ones who have the right to study the laws and continue improving and optimizing the process of a country, I see nothing wrong with games of chance, as long as they have to be seen from the side that they are a business, and that every casino owner seeks to make money, like everyone else in their business, there must be rules, yes, but I do not see the point of prohibiting them, if they want to prohibit addiction it is impossible to achieve it through regulations.

Well, on the other hand, this is also a loss for the government because there are still many gambling companies operating in countries where it is prohibited, so they move underground and there is no income for the government.

It's different when a country legalizes gambling, they will definitely get tax income from that gambling. This is a dilemma and the government must be able to study it. I think it is legal if there is absolutely no gambling operating in countries where it is prohibited, but currently there are lots of such practices and the government is getting nothing.

KYC wont help in this case. Numerous fake IDs and ID market killed KYC effectivity long time ago. And since we are in digital era, underaged can create another account and continue gambling. Gambling and underaged problem is not as big as it is described. Kids have still plenty of things to discover and try, compared with adults, that they wont focus on gambling only. Moreover, kids gambling career ends when they run out of money. They must put some effort to get a loan (as they have little to give as collateral) and spoil their lives.

If that's the case, we need to educate the younger ones about gambling and teach them by make more references to the negative aspects of gambling so they'll have to dread gambling before they spoil their lives with it. We all are familiar with how children of this jet age are always curious in knowing more and they ask lots of questions to but if they eventually learn gambling from peers they might keep it a secret from you and that could not end well as they are likely to use their all their spear bankroll for gambling and if addiction gets to their head, they might even begin stealing from their parents to gamble.

Everything has positive and negative sides. And especially gambling, you definitely have that. However, if you are banned from gambling, it is very likely to happen. As in my country, there is no gambling, gambling is prohibited, and gambling is restricted in my country.

In fact, there is more and more online gambling which is becoming more and more widespread and will be very difficult to stop. And in fact, every day more and more people will approach you. So, yes, whether it is banned or not, gambling will still reap actions and perceptions and pros and cons. So, once again, it is difficult to prevent them from engaging in gambling even now openly.

However, the problem is that it is not that easy to actually prohibit citizens from engaging in gambling. even when there is a threat of imprisonment, but unfortunately that doesn't make people aware of this rule.

It is difficult to prohibit a person from not making money , if a person or several people see that there is a clear possibility of making money through a casino or trading or something like that, who are the government to tell them no? People are not so submissive anymore, now they raise their voices, and if it is something to earn money, why do you have to tell them no? it is something that does not make sense, if they see that there is a possibility, then it must be done, there is no need to deny it, it must be done, therefore every time we see a way to make money or we believe that there is some way to make money, we should not let ourselves be manipulated by any government , I think that is all that happens.

It is impossible for governments to ban gambling and they know it.
Any attempt to do that would results in big increase of illegal gambling and they cant control and collect taxes from that anymore.
If they really wanted to ban gambling they would not start many government lotteries and sport betting predictions.

I do not agree with you. The government of any country has the authority to make national policies.  Whether you like it or not, one of the objectives of government is to protect and secure its citizens. Based on this, if the government believes that implementing a specific policy will improve citizens' living conditions, it is not unreasonable. At the end of the day, citizens will always succumb to the government's policies, whether voluntarily or tacitly.  On that note, if the government believes gambling is causing problems for citizens, it may prohibit gambling.

This is very true.
Some gamblers who are helplessly addicted to gambling are unable to restrict themselves from gambling, no matter how hard they try. One effective way to help such a person from continuously harming himself via gambling addiction would be the government enacting such strict policies that'll restrict people within their jurisdiction from indulging in gambling activities and also closing down down casinos within their jurisdiction, both online and offline, and when this happens, such gambler would gradually get over his addiction for gambling since there's no other means or way for him to access the casino or other gambling activities.

Well I understand that part, and I know that addiction cases should be given the required importance, but if the government treated those players who are in that problem and gave them their treatment assuming each expense and each thing, I think it would do more, the casino is a business that gives joy and entertainment to many people, then I think it is not the solution, because it is as if they prohibited soccer because a big problem formed in a stadium and people were killed (as has happened) the solution is not to prohibit soccer, the solution they give sometimes is to suspend the games in that stadium until people learn, it is simply analogous, but it should not be prohibited because it is limiting people.

you cannot completely ban gambling because in this case you will be banned by the society

Not true. It is possible to ban gambling. The only reason why most countries don't want to ban it is simply because the government is benefiting from the industry. Remember whatever benefits the government is never seen as a problem. This is why gambling may not be banned.

Some countries have banned gambling activities and in some states in the United States, gambling is prohibited. The fact that some jurisdictions have banned gambling shows that it is very possible to end gambling activity.

Outside taxes paid, some top government functionaries are also given bribes to make sure they protect the gambling industry in their country. This is why when the issue is up for deliberation in the assembly, it is difficult to get everyone to stand against gambling.

Gambling can never be completely banned, they can only try to close down physical casinos and bet shops which is very possible, but online gambling can't be stopped, even if they decide to restrict a particular country from accessing these casino sites people can still use VPNs to login. A lot of people are involved in gambling but not all are addicted, some do it to ease their stress and have fun, there are no possibilities in putting a stop to it totally

I don't think gambling can be banned everywhere at once. This type of entertainment has its origins in the most ancient centuries, where people played pebbles, made roosters eat or made horses run races. All this comes from there, and as a rule, it is embedded in our blood. And it is difficult to give up such things.

Gambling has been arrived since ancient times and will continuing. I don't think there is any chance to ban gambling. Maybe some countries can stop it but it will never be possible to ban it completely in all countries. Gambling companies now provide taxes that is why governments get a huge revenue. Now no government wants to lose financially. Moreover, gambling platforms have started to play a role in employment as well. Even if the government of a country wants to do that, it cannot take a decision to ban it. Considering these things I can definitely say that gambling will not be banned or is not possible. A gambler can personally refrain himself from gambling if he faces negative effect.

Gambling can never be completely stopped in a country, no matter how much gambling is banned in a country, gambling will always continue. Like my country Bangladesh, gambling is banned in this country, but gambling always continues in our country, and it will continue, it can never be completely stopped, it is impossible to completely stop gambling in a country.
