It always amazes me that some people get mad just because the one that is giving money away in the form of charity gets good publicity and they think that is the only reason why they are doing it, even if that is the case and the person or institution that is giving money away is only doing it for the publicity then who cares? What matters is that people are receiving help that otherwise they would not have received.

They should be lauded instead of hiring personalities to promote their project, they opted to donate to the government and support the needy people, of course, there's publicity behind it, this is a way to know that even if they are a gambling company they care for people and they know that government needs money to sustain their projects for those who are in need.

Yes, that can give them good reputations because besides running a gambling business, they also care about other people's lives, so they donate their income and give it to the government. If the other casino can give their help to the government, it will bring good news to people because they will get more support from many sides. With that donation, people out there can still survive and they do not have to suffer because the pandemic still happens in many places. If we can also help the government by donating what we have, that can support the government and give them a space to distribute the donation to more people.

Nope, it would just be temporal and not would be a permanent thing for gambling business to give out full support on letting those people do rely on them when it comes to
primary needs and other sources for them to live or sustain this pandemic.We know that this is a business not a charity which its expected that they would really be giving out some
donations but that would really be just good for a certain period of time but dont expect that it would really take too long but its better than have nothing at all.
This would really be giving out some good impressions towards the business which would really be plus in both sides.

With that it's surely to promote or add some attraction but there's still a good side from this act, helping in the mid of this pandemic is more weight thn looking for the otherside.

If they are really helping then so be it, whatever behind this action they are still providing and they should be credited by doing that, government are seeking for more of this as most of the government around the world are being hit hard by Covid.

This gesture will also open doors to other line of business to follow and do the same charities.

So if at the end the casinos that are helping the people end up becoming bigger and obtaining more profits then so be it, they deserve those profits as they are doing something for the people when they need it the most.

Well, this is what you called or the famous line "you cant please everyone" on which there would really be side comments that you can hear out because in fact this is the reality on where
some of those companies/people/institution would really have those behind the curtain motives on why theyre doing those good deeds for some cover up on what they do intent.
Its true that it doesnt matter on what are their plans as long it do benefit out the masses, they had able to get some help and support even though it might just be temporary
but at least there is one rather than having nothing at all.

Well, that is why there is no or little opposition to gambling firms and institutions, both online and physical, that is because of the taxes they generate that basically help in the governments efforts in this pandemic. Governments see the value that they bring, whether this is a casino, or a POGO outlet, or even a lottery outlet that sells lottery tickets and other forms of betting. Our country has been getting medical assistance from the government gambling regulatory board and has since helped thousands of impoverished people get good medical care.

It is really something that has happened for many years, in several countries the lotteries operate under the figure of "non-profit" which gives them the opportunity to do charity.

On the other hand; the taxes are of such magnitude that the casinos become important sources of income for local governments, some casinos prefer to be under the figure "benefit" because they reduce tax costs, and so on.

The United Kingdom is in a certain way a country with legislation "open" to gambling, several countries seek to impose high fee rates, without intermediating proposals such as investment by casinos in infrastructure, so weigh discounts from these tax rates, achieving an exchange that benefits everyone, casinos-users-governments.

It is in the interest of every gambling company to keep the government in the country where they are based happy. If they do not keep the government happy then restrictions or further taxes on such activity are likely to happen. I am fairly sure that it is also written into the agreement that a portion of funds will be spent on good causes, this is not the owners of the National Lottery being in any way benevolent. While it is definitely helpful that they spend this money on good causes, it is little different than mining or oil companies funding certain projects to get a favorable stance from politicians. The National Lottery used to be owned by the UK government before it sold off a huge cash cow, now I am fairly sure it's owned by some Canadian teachers pension fund who understand the long term value.

Gambling firms have been actively helping our governments, in form of taxes of course. That being said, it's quite novel for me to hear about gambling firms directly helping a country's government thru methods other than what's stated earlier. Goes to show how these two fields are at least intertwined to one another.

The government can use the tax to develop the country but with more help from the gambling firms, that will make a recovery for that country will run better as the government can get support from the firms. Maybe that is not happening in many countries, but I am sure that what is happening to the other countries is that the other country's help will come from the other industry. But we can hope that more companies will help the government as the government can do that alone.

As you said most gambling contributes to the state through paying taxes, and I rarely find gambling firms that provide direct assistance to
the government by methods other than paying taxes. Or maybe they often do it but don't publish it, given the negative public view of
the gambling industry. For me whoever provides assistance is fine, as long as the goal is good, we should all support it.

There is a very clear case on how some gambling or lotteries help with social causes. The "ONCE" is the "National Blind People Association" in Spain. They organise an state authorised lottery every week and put profits into helping disabled people. One good employment that you can get being blind or having severe sight issues is selling this lottery tickets, but also the profits are reinvested in people with disabilities of different types.

There are really lotteries that been launched out for this causes which is good but most of them would always after on the side income that they could get but if they do make

use it on the right way where allocation is bigger to be given on the said cause than into their own pockets that that signifies a good move that had been made.

We cant just removed the impression that they are just doing this for some additional promotion or PR with these kind of events.

It is also true in case of online casinos. People have turned to online gambling ever since the pandemic has hit. We did see a rise in the number of gamblers last year. With cases rising back again to it's peak, some countries might once again put strict restrictions everywhere or may even go back to an initial lockdown. We may see another rise in the volume of bets being placed in online casino. At least it is providing (some) people entertainment while being housebound.

We will have to wait and see but I doubt that things are going to get as ugly as they did during the last year, after all governments have made a point to vaccinate the people that have the most exposure to the virus and the ones that suffer the greatest effects of the virus as well, so even if the third wave is coming I find it very difficult to believe that it is going to be as bad as it was last year.

With that in mind then I think that healthcare protocols are going to be relaxed a little bit and the economic activity of the countries will begin to catch up so it is important that anyone that can help a little bit do so right now which is the moment in which people need that help the most.

Although people view about gambling firm is not very good, because it can lead to addiction. But there must be a positive side to gambling firms,
it is proven that a gambling firm located in the UK provides assistance to the government to help people who are indeed affected by the pandemic.
This is something that probably cannot be done by all large companies, therefore it must be appreciated what the gambling firm is doing. For now,
we really have to unite and help each other, because the COVID-19 pandemic is a common enemy.

I hope all of the countries have this kind of gambling site that helps people during this time of pandemic. The only thing that concerns me is that a corrupt government may not use all of the money that is going to be donated to them by a company or by someone, if you know what I mean, that's why it would be more good if they are the ones who is going to do the helping literally so that they can assure that their money will be all use in helping those people that really needs help.

Help in terms of tax but normally these are just those normal reductions on where a business should really pay off- yes, these businesses does really have an impact or role
towards countries development because revenues of these companies are really big compared to others which its understandable that they are big contributors.
Gambling businesses wont really be making out some expense for nothing in case they are helping the government or other institutions.This might look some
charitable works for some eyes but actually there are really things comes in behind.

I think that with such a huge financial offer the government would put itself in a very bad position had they denied it. There would be news all over the Internet with titles like "The UK government refuses to take £64m aimed to support poor and struggling people". How do you think that would affect the public image? Cheesy

I think it's a win-win deal. The lottery company gets acknowledgment from both government and society, and those in need receive great financial support, so it's good for the government too.

~~~ And honestly, nor should any credit be given to a public entity for doing exactly what they're supposed to do.

What you mean is: becasue of the government helping the citizens they shouldn't be commended?, yes the funds belongs to the government and not the people and for them remembering to give back to the communities demand commendations from citizens. Take for example my country, the government will wack the funds and heaven won't fall on anybody, so, lets always show the government some appreciations when they give back to us.
