We know that everything has both positive and negative effects, gambling is no exception. Gambling plays some role in the economic development of the society and the country. In particular, the government receives a special economic development tax from gambling. However, when considered individually in the society, gambling is very harmful especially when considering the members of a middle class and lower class family. In order to manage gambling money, he is seen creating various social problems and does not hesitate to commit heinous crimes like theft, robbery and even murder. In my opinion, gambling does more harm than good to people.

Many resort to theft, robbery and extortion to manage gambling money, leading to chaos and disorder in society and among families and residents. Gambling is still considered illegal in many countries of the world because these problems will be created mainly through gambling. It is considered bad for the society so that no one can gamble or become addicted to gambling in our society. People who are addicted to gambling are not respected by the people of the society but they are constantly disrespected by everyone.

Actions that do not benefit our society are not good for us healthy people to do.In the society I live in, gambling is still considered a heinous crime and gambling addicts tend to be ostracized from society.

Can not get why gambling could be bad to the society. This industry creates extra jobs, pay taxes, gives people a fun, denique. Sure, there are some negative sides ^{(as in any other human activity)} but all of them are of the human kind, thus society should foster awareness of those let-downs to mitigate its influence on their members. Taboo on gambling would not solve any relevant problem.

The tax collected from gambling is a very small source of income for the government and if online gambling is taxed more, the government can collect huge amount of tax from it. Socially a gambler is portrayed negatively only when it reaches the addictive stage. To consider gambling as a means of entertainment and to manage it as a strong source of revenue for the government and to ensure family responsibility for developing values in general. If a gambler fulfills all his responsibilities properly, the responsibility does not come only for gambling.

Great words said! If a gambler is responsible and his self-discipline stays in check, he is truly going to have a good time and preserve his well-being for the future. And, socially, he will be a model for others Grin

Taxes are collected only in countries where gambling is legalized but in countries where gambling is not legal how do you explain the positive side of gambling.

For example, my country Bangladesh has not legalized gambling but there are millions of gamblers in my country who are always involved in street theft and robbery.

But I would say whatever the positive side of gambling is, gambling is really a curse in low income countries like my country of Bangladesh.

I do not support the fact that there is no positive side to gambling in countries where casinos or gambling are not legalized. Although there is no economic positive side in all those countries, gamblers definitely have a mental positive side. Those who participate in gambling for entertainment must find entertainment in gambling and they find pleasure in their daily activities. Those who lead a solitary life must try to pass their solitary time by indulging in gambling. Many times people get bored while working, in case of them gambling definitely provides mental calmness and boosts enthusiasm towards work.

For the positive side issue I think it does not depend on whether a country legalizes or prohibits gambling in its country, because for this issue I think it comes back to each gambler individually, if they really feel the positive side of the activity such as feeling entertained when they are in their boring free time by gambling then that is what is called the positive side regardless of any regulations in your country.

On the other hand, I think it would be useless even if you were in a country that legalized gambling but you could not feel the positive side of the activity at all, and that is very possible. And also I think I would not suggest or even force someone to get involved in gambling when they are bored, because in fact gambling is a choice that is too risky even if you come with the intention of entertainment, meaning if there are still other things that you can choose, especially those that do not involve risk, then clearly choose that, and if there are none at all then it is okay to choose gambling as long as you can really apply a lot of caution.

The gambling site which was legal in the some of the countries,in that country alone the gambling site pay the taxes to the government.In rest of the country the gambling site was work by using the vpn to pay and the gambling site will not pay the taxes to that country even they generate income through the gambling site.So this was illegal one in that country,the better way to generate money from the gambling is make this legal by the government and get the taxes legally from the gambling site and finally use the taxes for the people welfare.

Usually, only the physical casino pays the taxes or are obliged to pay taxes on their profits as they have their presence on ground and they can't avoid the regulations of the country. However, online casinos have this luxury of hiding themselves and not paying any taxes and still get away with it. I am not saying that all gambling sites operate in this way but the less trusted ones can manipulate if they want.

Also, I think that the discussion about gambling is good or bad to society is more about its effect on the individual gamblers and in this I would say that it is more dependent on the gambler as how he approaches the gambling and how he engages him and equips himself with different tools to safeguard from excessive and emotional gambling.

- If the result is not good for a gambler, it cannot be considered good for society, especially if the gambling that a player plays in a casino is illegal. Gambling is also sometimes given a wrong interpretation.

Especially for the particular poor people who have no hope in life and then they see hope that gambling is the solution for them to get out of the depressed state of poverty they are facing and something that is not also correct.

The good and bad of gambling depends on ourselves who do it, although most people tend to view gambling as bad but in fact I think this is not entirely true. because gambling is generally a means of entertainment so if they gamble properly without any bad impacts then gambling is not a bad thing, including countries that prohibit gambling are the same. even though the country prohibits gambling, because of increasingly sophisticated developments, many people can access online gambling and if they can gamble healthily then there will be no bad impacts.

a mistake when they view gambling as a way or solution to overcome their inadequate circumstances. I'm sure there are people who think gambling is one way to make money so they think and hope that gambling can change their circumstances for the better, from this perspective it is wrong and makes many gambling seen as bad for society because it will often make someone addicted and experience problems that occur from various angles.

I agree with your perspective. While gambling can bring about an economic contribution through taxes, the harm caused to individuals and society, especially in the lower and lower classes, is very devasting. The presence of a gambling addiction can cause different social issues to take shape, like increasing crime, as a by-product rather than the primary reason one started. Typically, in the long-term, social and personal losses from gambling are far greater than any economic benefits that might be reaped.

the gambling that generate economy for the country is a gambling website or platform that operate with license but so many of them who does not operate with license does not pay a tax to a government because they are illegal gambling platform so I believe that some of them that operate in such way does not have any economic boost up to the Country or to the government of them who operates legally are the one that I have a positive sign to the Country they reside on, I'm not kicking against your theory but I have to express my feeling.

I hear you. Licensed gambling platform does contribute to the state via taxes and fosters this economy. Illegal gambling sites, on the other hand, are not only evading taxes but can also cause harm to the economy and society. Legal ways of supporting regular gambling are important so that states and citizens can enjoy the benefits.But behind the benefits gained, we also consider other negative impacts, so that even though the gambling platform provides a significant contrubus and has the development of a country, still the gambling platform needs to be limited to prevent things that we don't want.

Speaking about tax and other aspect then it would really be something that a normal thing and something that beneficial specially if tax generated by these business is really that huge then it would be something
that helpful in towards countries economy on which this is the positive impact that it could give out in speaking about economical aspect but in focusing about citizens concern or condition then it would really be molding up that potential gambling addicts within the place and we do know that this is one of the main effects if its really that been legalized or allowed but well addiction is something a personal choice.
It would really be only that bad on the time that they will really becoming themslves on being addicted into it and this is something that will really be that on main concern when it comes to this.

Gambling would really be that only bad on the sense that people would really be making themselves having that kind of dealing or involvement on which on excessive manner. On the moment that they would really be doing such action or decision then this is where issues would really be starting to raised up. We do know that when it comes into this aspect then it would really be having such effects.

If anyone thinks otherwise I will like to ask them to mention any source of making money that has no risk, the reason why gambling could be bad for a society is because the society consist of idiots only and even their government is aware of it, to me this is a big shame for them, they should know that gambling comes with it own risks.

Out of irresponsible gambling an addict is always born, and this doesn't leave greediness behind, you don't need to control people to be a responsible gambler, they say curiosity kill the cat, only one way to find out, you can't do a mistake with gambling and not learning in an instant what gambling is all about, only stupid people fall at the messy of gambling.

I agreed with what you said but why do you think that when an investment is too risky, they consider it as gamble? That's because there is not an assurance that your money will come back, this is what differentiate gambling and other risk investment. The moment you place that money and eager it, consider that money to be gone even though there is some probability of the money coming back to you.

Gambling is risky and you can lose everything but it can't be denied that people haven't made it from the way. Some gamblers has retired their parent by given them what they want and live the life they want to live and all the money is from gambling, they don't have any means than gambling and God bless them, they do won huge amount of money some companies don't make in a year from a single bet.

what do you think? gambling should always be allowed for everyone?

I think that it is definitely not for everyone, definitely not for people who have an irresistible urge to gamble and can't stop in time. But I honestly do not see how this access can be regulated, except for the development of self-control. With the advent of the Internet and VPNs, even restricting gambling in a certain country is not an obstacle for those who want to do it. The casinos themselves will not deny access to players, because this is the source of their income, and they are able to make money from such an addiction.

I agree with you. And even the reason why some countries prohibit gambling is because gambling can have a very bad effect if not regulated properly because it can destroy a country. Imagine if all your citizens are gambling addicts and gamblers. Then there will be a lot of crime because people want to get a lot of money to gamble. In some countries like Singapore gambling is legalized but under very strict regulations from the government and only gambling in certain places. But the point is gambling cannot be allowed carelessly because it has the potential to ruin the future of children who are not yet mature and wise in thinking.

Sometimes poverty could affect the way a particular region do gamble. I don't mean people gamble because of poverty but sometimes, when people don't have a job they could see gambling as the only source of income which could make others to join so that they can make earns meat for their family. When people depend on gambling for survival, it usually have a big effect on them with time. I believe when most people are employed, the rate of gambling would be less and not often and that do not mean that their would not be gamblers around the corner always ready to keep gambling for bigger profits.

There is no source of making money that does not have risks but gambling is not a source of making money and should be a source for fun not money. Many people have turned gambling to a source of making money because, things are getting too expensive and there are no jobs available because many people are losing the jobs they have already but no new opening are being announced. People have decided to rely on gambling as a way to make money and this is making them to gamble in a wrong way because they want to make money by all means. I do not agree that gambling is bad for the society but it is the society that are gambling in the wrong way and they are making gambling to look very bad. If they gamble in a responsible way, they would not be making the society to hate gambling.

bad risk management I'd say, no amount of luck will beat a bad enough risk management if you give the situation enough time to unroll
it's sad that some people risk and lose it all but we have to remember that is their responsibility after all

crazy how the world is...

Crazy it is and those that have been winning great but then are bad with risk management, that money that they've got will be gone in the wind quickly.
They think that luck comes at most times where in fact that it's not. And that's why every profit that someone makes from the bets that they do should be taken care of properly.

There is a lot of empirical evidence this is the case, as even those that win a big jackpot or the lottery soon enough find themselves facing all kinds of financial trouble despite all of the money they got, and it is not surprising this is the case, since they do not know the amount of effort that it would have taken to earn that money by working hard, so they spend that money thinking that it is never going to run out, until one day it does and they are left with a lot of debts they cannot pay.

People say gambling is bad for the society because the society consist of people that lacks self control Cheesy

Who is to be blame? For every decisions that humans made it is on us if we succeeded or fumbled, if you get out on the street and kill a man you will be jailed, it is a decision that you made yourself, it is the same with gambling.

A gun can take a life and also protect lives, even weapon of mass destructions were built to scare enemies away, to leave a country alone in peace.

Gambling can make or break you, make sure you can handle it, if you can't you are free to leave.

It's everybody's choice what to do with that knowledge and possibilities at hand. You are right.

Of course toying the path of gambling responsibly is an individual choice because I knew some gamblers with reference to soccer betting who knows what they are doing when gambling that is they only gamble with the amount of money they can afford to lose and some of those gamblers use their proceed from betting to support themselves thus I don't categorize those responsible gamblers as bad to the society, though we have addicted gamblers who had painted gambling in a bad light but I believe they are very few and we wouldn't use them to categorize gambling as bad to the society.

It would really be just that common sense on having this way on which it would really be that understandable that you would really be needing up your own
approach on things on which it would really be that relevant on the time or moment that you do found yourself on such condition. Gambling is bad to society?
Not its not and it is really just that on the actions taking up by someone on why they do really end up with that kind of situation.

Gambling should really be just that for fun but they do really ends up on having that kind of condition on where they are really that trying out to make money
on which this one would primarily causes up for someone to play up even more they are really that having that greed in mind.
