In my Country, Casinos that are run by the Government sets aside a substantial amount of money to charity specially charity institutions that is also run by the Government, not only charity but also building and rebuilding Churches that are included or known as historical site.

It is nothing wrong with donations as long as we know exactly where that charity money go. But Casinos are not charity organisations. They are private companies and it is totally up to owner of said casino if he want to donate anything from his profit to charity or not.

We're speaking of online bitcoin accepting casino's here if I'am not wrong.Does your government runs these as well? If yes I would like to re-locate to your country.

Should? Yeah, they should, but so what? You cannot control what the others think and what the others do. Every corporation and every person should care about the poor and help them. Every person should do good stuff and should commit no crime. The world should be peaceful and there should be no war, no terrorism, no discrimination, no abuse, etc. From what I see, we don't have any of the above happening.

I dont think its a good idea because casinos have their own money and they can spend it wherever they want

Yes but if we do nothing we are not helping, at least he is giving an idea and maybe some casino owners see it and agree with it. Not everyone thinks about donating all the time so a little reminder is never harmful

I heard some charity staff travel in first class air plane seat, stay in 5 start hotel. I do not travel like that and try to save every penny in economy class and non 5 star hotels. Some executives are paid hundreds of thousands dollars per year, I do not get paid that high. Why should I pay for their high living standard?

this you are telling because you have seen the high profile charity organisation, which are operated by big bullies to convert their black money. their are so many small charity organisation who are really doing works and who genuinely need help. dont see big names try to do nearby you like if you see poor feed him, like this you can feel happy when you do charity this way. and this goes genuinely to the needy

I think that this is a great idea, but it should be properly done, making sure the funds arrive where they have to, also because the company really wants to do it, not just for money laundering. I also think that there is a lot of money on btc and casinos enough to stop thousands of people from suffering hunger.

I would like to donate to them if the money is spent frugally. But there are also many small charities were set up to swindle people's money. There are news about this kind of scandals every months. The problem is to find the right charity.

I absolutely agree! All Casinos should have to donate a certain quantity to charity per year. This should be law! Governments should try to implement this rule instead of being unfriendly towards casinos

Casino is a business like any other. We can not force anyone to pay money for charity. It should be voluntary payment.

Do you know for sure that these casinos aren't donating to charity?
The "extra" or "left over" as you call it is the profit and it goes to the owners of the business. It's VERY possible that these owners are doing go things in their community - charitable contributions to large, known organizations or to help individuals in their community.
I think you're making a huge assumption that may not be true. Also, I think it's a GREAT IDEA for companies to announce that they're giving x% or BTCxxx away annually to some cause they are passionate about. It also helps bring in business because some people want to spend their money with those companies.
The bottom line is that business provide a good or service to generate a profit for their owners. Ideally they do good service for their customers and community. You should "vote with your wallet" and do more business with companies that you know give back to their communities. Reward them for their generosity!

casinos are too greedy that just use those dollars they earned to upgrade their stuff while there are still major amount of funds avaliable.
well you already said it, casinos were too greedy, i doubt they will agree donating on charities ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) anyways i agree that they sbould donate some of their profit to charity, it will be a very big help but AFAIK there are charities that refuses money from gambling. I think they will because it is like doing some promotion to others to keep on playing at their site and the money will going to charity like they usually said but in the end people are not believing it, may be some big whale do this kind of thing to support both side casino and charities. I dont think they will refuse that big money to support their people there

I don't know about online casinos like Bitcoin casinos. But I know that the casinos in Vegas, they donate millions of dollars every year to Charities.
They also get tax breakes as a result of doing so.

They do whatever they want with their money, like you do whatever you want with yours. You cannot force them. Some might do it, like some people might do it.

I think its ok for them to do some charity from player there because they just hold some huge fund to anticipate people with big winning so they can pay them so to think that they spend it I dont think they will do that

Casino is just a business and them donating to charity is completely up to them. I used to donate some time ago but after i learned how the donation funds are treated and how the money is really spent made me completely change my perspective on the whole donating scheme. It is so hard to find a aid program that actually goes towards the needy without organisations taking away the vast majority. That is the real problem.
