    The larger problem is the presence of children and other young people using it to gamble. Check my other comment to see what I mean with a first hand account of it.

      Look, my point is: we should just ban any gambling. It never does any good, any regulations and taxes end up being paid by the poorest ones. Children or not, just stop it altogether.

        There should be regulations on it to prevent addictions but I don’t know about banning all together.

          What’s the point?

          Fun? Please, casino games are hilarously bad.

          Money? It takes from the poor, and even those who win end up wasting it away.

          Thrill? I hope not.

          So why? Money laundering? Data collection?
