I agree about auditing them but being a public servant, there will be critics that will be all eyes on them and that's why if they're already in the public post, they should halt or at least don't get involved with anything related to gambling even if it's their livelihood.
But in developing countries, we'll see politicians like them to just sworn that they'll avoid gambling and stop their business or won't get a touch of it. And, they're all just words and talk is cheap. Nothing wrong if they're done being a public servant but while they're still on their duty, it should be avoided by them.
That is the keyword there "public" servant, so everything you do, all eyes is going to be on you, so whether positive or negative, there are ways that your enemies can destroy you like if they found out that you are one of the operators or behind the development of gambling platform and very instrumental on the proliferation of it. So for me, if you are elected by the public, it's better to stay away from that kind of perception, just do your job as a public servant and not involved yourself in gambling, IMHO.
Right, they've got to just avoid and maintain their posture away from any gambling-related matter. Whether as an owner or just a casual gambler, that's where the conflict begins if they won't get away from it.
This absolutely tells us people that despite money rules and laws implemented by the authority, it can't be perfectly serves to everyone or fair to all, some leaders we're still able to twist it. This is not new, many of the illegalities happen the country is ruled by these big leaders, who dare to stop them? Not the implementing bodies but just their competitors and they are killing each other.
I can say that there is no way to stop them. They use their position and make use of it as their power to take advantage of others that is why even if it was illegal, it is still operating because nobody will be able to stop it and nobody is willing to sacrifice their lives.
That's one sad reality but we can just hope that there will be someone mightier than of these folks. They all want to take every position and power that they can but aren't willing to subject themselves under the law if it's being required to them.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion but I disagree, if gambling is legal at a country then any person regardless of their political affiliation should be able to establish a casino if that is what they want to do.
Free enterprise is one of the cornerstones of our modern age, there were many eras and civilizations in which this was not possible, and if you were born into a particular social class then you could not hope to perform any occupation other than that one regardless of your preferences or your talents, something which slowed down our progress, so if a politician wants to open a casino then I do not see anything wrong with it.
There's a taboo for a public servant to be engaged with this type of business. We'll never know how far they can go if they never stop themselves engaged in it. Although this example is far from being a public official, there have been employees that have been entrusted by their companies' funds and then they've gambled it. This is also possible to happen wherein they might just throw the money into their business that's not theirs.
