I believe that one of the main factors that makes gambling more widespread is that in recent years it has become really very accessible. I recently watched a video where a man addicted to gambling accused the casino that they released an application, because of which he did not even need to leave the house to place a bet. As a result, he lost everything. And earlier he had to go to the casino and perform some actions, and this contributed to the fact that he thought 10 times about whether he wanted to make this bet at all. And now any bet is a matter of two clicks in the application or on the website.
Lol, I feel pity for those people who blame the casino for making gambling more convenient and accessible once they lose money, they wouldn't praise them if they win a significant amount of money though, I believe it's one's own responsibility to take care of their gambling activities and their money and not to spend everything, casinos will obviously do everything they can to get more and more gamblers because they are running a business and gamblers are their customers.
Such people need to learn to accept defeat because it is not the casino that forced them to gamble, they only provide them the option and if they are reckless and can't gamble responsibly, it's not the casino's fault at all and they need to assess themselves and make the necessary changes.
