1.Yes and No. You can blame the cause of your addiction, but the main cause and problem is your lack of self-control.

2.The idea that banning gambling would force the gamblers to spend more money buying goods and services(and boosting the economy) seems reasonable and stupid at the same time. Banning gambling would only force most of the gamblers to play online via using a VPN and to visit illegal offline casinos, that are hidden in secret places.

3.The blame can be shared between the gambling industry and the gamblers. Let's not pretend that the gambling industry is completely innocent, and on the other hand, let's not pretend that the gamblers are a bunch of gullible and ignorant people, who got manipulated and forced to gamble by the casinos.

Gambling is not to blame but people who gamble excessively and want to use gambling as a source of income are to blame. There should be new regulations stating that those who gamble excessively will receive severe punishment so that those who gamble excessively can understand this and try hard to reduce their gambling activities. The government must provide education to its citizens and strictly prohibit those who want to use gambling as a source of income. But it seems that this is not easy to do because there are already many people who consider gambling as a source of income and these are the ones who need to be trained and made aware of it first, including those written by @OP. Gambling is the same as other activities, but the difference is that gambling uses money to get fun and entertainment. At the same time, other activities may also use money but perhaps not as much as gambling.

Look, dollars are used for drug trafficking, right? Are US dollars to be blamed for whoever decides to use drugs? Same with paedophiles or weapons dealers, they use dollars, but that does not make the dollar a bad thing, it is the use that people make of it what is not right. Gambling is not wrong in itself, it is a pastime and some addictive personalities may just fall into it like they could in other stuff.

Drugs will never have anything to do with and can have an influence on gambling and of the three questions you asked, there is only one question that makes me interested in discussing it.

When there is gambler who really experiences ruin because of gambling then it is clear that the main mistake is not about gambling but the gambler himself.
They decide to gamble according to their desires and thoughts, they gamble without coercion from any party so it is clear that they must be responsible for all the risks and consequences that occur.
The mistake of gamblers is not being able to have limits and self-control and of course if limits and control can be had then destruction will never happen.
From this it can be concluded that blaming gambling for the destruction that occurs is not responsible attitude and of course I would consider them to be gamblers who cannot introspect themselves.

Gambling is not the problem here; the guy was the problem, and he ended up getting himself into two addictions at the same time. They should focus more on trying to save that soul from destroying himself.
 
Let's look at it this way, assuming there was nothing like gambling, and this guy is already in a state where if he doesn't take those drugs, he feels like he is losing it and can't get control of himself.

What do you think will stop him from doing anything possible just to be able to afford those drugs? And the things possible included selling those laundry properties, as it appears that's the only valuable thing he has in his possession. It's just a matter of time, and he will definitely sell the shop off to sponsor his drug habit.

The thread might be lengthy but please "exercise that your investors demanded "patient" if you must achieve valuably along the runs".

A hard drugs (cocaine) addict from Nigeria who has a laundry (wash/dry cleaning shop) for source of his financial needs sustainability is verified to had advanced in his intake of his drugs addiction. To certain point he was not financially stable to purchase the drugs as his usual. While he had learnt about gambling as means of profitablity, he though it was to be so flexible and easy as that to bet and win to he could gain and further purchase the hard drugs or his addictions.
He was attracted to the sport betting after winning in some certain stakes while visiting the bet shop but as time goes, maybe he needed a relaxation to comfortably place his bet in his privacy which triggered him to download and registered on the online gambling sports casino. He had made more counts of losts than his winnings and yet could not take control of his emotions simply because he has a goal of desperacy in chasing profits in the gambling board just to gain some money and afford himself the drugs.
He was no more concentration on his laundry business til he ran out of cash to place more stake which to him to sell laundry accessories so he could fund his online gambling wallet account. And he ignorantly submitted himself to the gambling without realizing how his life is being ruined after countless times his has lost his stakes without a given countable profits any more in drugs addicts, his laundry and so on his gambling habitual ignorantic addition too.

This has attracted to a reminder referencing individuals whom had suicidedly lost their lives, those whom had countlessly lossed their valuables, those whom had been indebted and the atrociousnesses which has indicted individuals because of gambling.
This has also called on the aifs of a political and a social influencer calling to the attentions of the president of Nigeria to bring an end and cut off the accessibilities access to online sport betting in the country in other to main a better orderliness in the society because the states of miles Nigerians undergoes is being mentally worrisome which has also made a caused of depreciations of our fiat currency Naira(#). He further stated that if betting platforms could be moderated, then the lost of the currency values would regain and boosten back it's values. https://punchng.com/experts-fear-rise-in-mental-illnesses-over-addiction-to-betting-apps/

My question>>>
* Is gambling really to be blamed about the laundry drug addict guy who engaged in gambling in order to gain more money and afford his drugs?
Because to me, he has been a drug addict before began to gamble and he strictly gambled consciencelessly just to make profit and buy himself this assorted unhealthy pills (drugs). So, I don't see anyway of gambling being responsible for his irresponsible reputations with his mentality of what triggered him to gambling and his inabilities to control his gambling.

* Was the political social influencer right to say getting to an end of online sport bets in the app stores and the moderating of gambling would regain back the devalued currency and attracts a growing economy back to the nation a right acceptable and good research?
As much as I know, individual indulgences has no stake of influences to affect the national economy at where the government folds its hands of governance While counting national welfareness reliably of the vulnerable individuals. Although, getting to an end of online sport bets from the app stores would contribute to manage the number of psychological gambling addictive effects in the country.

* Is gambling really to be blamed in ruining lifes?
Even though the online casino gambling as influences on the massive audience, I don't think it has been in any strategic or physically enforced a compulsory venture to anyone that he must gamble.
I don't see gambling walking to the players instead the players walks to the gambles so, directly and indirectly gambling has an influence but has not path to be blamed over individuals irrepressible living on their caused of gambling.
