You are talking shit honestly, gambling is the last hope of a man? If you are really that desperate and taking up some suicidal movement and decision then you would really be coming up with this idea but eventually you are really that making situations gets more worst.
If you looked at reality, that's the situation of other people, relying on gambling as their last hope. That's even the reason why people suffer financial crises because they think by gambling, they will able to make more money in the process which turned out bad.
As the result, they ended up broke and now part of those become a victim because of gambling.
The thing is that's actually a pretty narrow point of view imo. Maybe in the most extreme cases, it can be applicable, e.g. you have a debt and you'd die the next day if not paid (though a person alive is worth more than a person dead, but it's just a sample scenario anw), then gambling it and taking a last jump can be an applicable option, but that's a really extreme and rare case. It's just escapism imo, there are ways to live, just that it's all too difficult (and probably takes too much time, but that's part of it after all) so most choose an easy (but extreme) choice.
During yesterday's pandemic, the ones that benefited the most were online casinos because they could survive. They can work from home and still supervise the casino because casino employees cannot leave the house. But offline casinos may be the ones that can't benefit because they can't operate for some time. When something shakes up the business world, all businesses will feel the effects, but some areas of business are less affected and may still be able to run their business even in a state of survival.
You can actually call it survival of the fittest but with a more modern theme. Though tbf all businesses are like that, in this case it became much more obviously apparent since the enemy wasn't other businesses, but rather a 3rd party aka the pandemic.
