Gambling should be considered as a Sickness!!

[hurain]

Totally agree.
I think most countries take more care about Problem Gambling issue now a day.

Countries can just ban the gambling websites and close all the casinos other than that they can't keep people away from gambling. If one is interested sure he'll participate in gambling through one or other way.

The government can't just close down casinos because it's a legal business right now. Besides, the rich people behind those casinos have connections to the government and they don't want to ruin their relationship to each other or they are the government themselves. Regardless, the government are making money from these casinos because of the tax, and the "donations" that these casinos give us so they won't just close it down.

Banning gambling sites would have no effect at all. Porn sites are banned in my country but the only thing that happened was it went trending on Facebook for a day and the next day people are still watching porn. Somebody would always find a way to bypass all these and the method that he discovered will just spread pretty fast.

in my country gambling is banned and therefore casino is illegal here in my country but still here we can see some informal casinos running by different rich people having good relations with governments and police therefore they are running illegal casinos for a long time.

Anything in moderation is not considered as sickness and I think the same goes to gambling. If you do it in moderation and recreationally, It is fine to do so. It only becomes dangerous or can be considered sickness if you are going out of your way to do it. Put in the funds that you were supposed to use it for another purpose or do it all day long and cannot live without doing it.

Yes it is true, one gambling site was closed then the thousands will be born, I think this is tiresome, preferably the State regulate and legalize gambling and take benefit from gambling, the world is very dynamic and the prohibition will never deter people to gambling.

Bitcoin gambling industry are booming since it is easy to gamble using bitcoin and more gamblers will come to play. Thus, it makes the gambling operators think that there is a big market here and it would be easy for them to be profitable, we should need to be discipline, the increasing number of gambling sites means more fun and not a problem.

beside its easy, gamblers can playing gambling without showing the ID details and they can playing gambling anonymous and if they win, they can still getting the bitcoin and transferred it into other wallet without worried about the tax or else. i am sure that bitcoin gambling sites will still exist if the other sites is baned from few country and no matter how hard, new gambler will come and playing the gambling games.

I just know that the money winnings from gambling will be taxed, the government seems to never collect taxes from our bank account unless the money is the result of our work, although not all countries apply rule of it.

Totally agreed. Banning something does not prevent people from it or no one will stop doing something just because it is banned. As @Fatanut gave the example of banned porn sites, it is also like that in my country but people still watch and download them using VPNs and all. And also youtube used to be banned in here once but we still used to download or watch videos from there.

Yes, gambling can only be considered sickness if you are putting in more than you have like selling your goods or taking loans just to play gambling. Thats is not good. Playing gambling with funds in hand can also make you lose sometimes. So it depends on how you go about it.

I saw in different country's government ban the gambling, but still in these countries people play it, because government can ban casinos and gambling sites but they can't stop the people and people can't change the nature. Because it is not easy to left the gambling and every true gambler don't want to left it.

Parts of YT are still banned in certain countries. For instance in Germany you often see a message "this video is not available in your country" but god bless proxy servers and sites that unlock youtube videos
People will always find a way to deal with restrictions. I remember when they banned smoking in crowded public places, and you could get a ticket for smoking on a bus stop. People were simply walking 1m behind the stop and smoking there.

correct. for people who actually produce many bitcoin from gambling, would not regard it as a sickness, even as they took the game to their workplace. but, for those who can not control himself, it would be very difficult for them to assume that gambling is a game, and assume it is a sickness.

Right especially if they can't stop their self from playing even they just keep on losing. Those people are too eager to win because of their loses. I believe those who got addicted or greedy (not merely a sickness to consider) lose a lot of money that should not put in the gambling that's why they keep on trying to win it back.

It is not a sickness at all unless you want to spend everything in gambling. If you only spend partial of what you have then dont consider it as sickness, that just means you spend what you can afford to lose. Afterall you need to spend something in the game for it to be called as gambling otherwise it is not

Gambling itself it is not an addiction, the abuse of gambling it is an addiction.

That's correct, the addiction is killing the gamblers by ruining their lives. I hope we can all enjoy in gambling but there are people who cannot manage themselves and gambling is just not good for them. With that kind of experience, they need to quit gambling and look for another activities that could give them money or entertainment.

The problem is that most people cant leave their gambling habit aside and even for those that are not really addicted to it like me, I cant just stop everything immediately. I spend few dollars to bet each week, not much however it will  be much better for me not to waste anything at all however it is just hard not to

The change cannot happen abruptly, you have to work in through a procedural approach, it must be slowly but steady. Most of us has been addicted in gambling due to the fact that it's nature is addicted and we are too blinded on the big reward than the risk associated in doing it.
Therefore, since it is our fault we should correct it ourselves and if ever we can get out of addiction we must not go back to that situation again.

[bravehearth0319]

i don't think so.
a car is a dangerous vehicle if you drive it madly and hit a brick wall at top speed, should cars be banned too?

gambling is the same, it is just a game that you can use to have fun while taking risks. the fact that some people get addicted and lose a lot of money while having an illusion of getting rich doesn't change any facts.

The quote of yours is so deep to others  here, but in some other point you are right. If we drive the vehicle we will carefully look at the right direction where we going to be, because even we knew its too risky while driving. but we are confident that we can reach our destination safely.

That is something we need to reflect with, everyone should understand that gambling is not a problem but it will give you happiness because it's entertainment, while gambling addiction is the problem and we should not go to that level.

Gambling and gambling addiction is different.

Well I don't think that playing gambling should be considered as a sickness,
Maybe some player who are a compulsive gambler is sick but for those who can controll their selves I don't think they are also sick maybe they are just doing it for profit like me and when ever we reach that limit we would just simply stop.

Yes ,not all gamblers who gambling is sick of addicted playing continously without caring about how much money they supposed to be lost . Gambling only considered as a sickness if a person doesn't control himself over gambling activities .

gambling does not have a positive impact, and gambling has many negative effects. so I think gambling is a sickness. most people of his life is broken because of gambling than successful because of gambling and because success in gambling such as 1:1000000
