Should humans be free agents in the gambling world?

[carlfebz2]

Gambling do have already been separated when cryptocurrency is created. It did make up a new option or way to gamble without being controlled or following up some rules. Freedom is good but have some rules to follow isnt bad at all. Addiction do exist on both field free or regulated, all outcomes will depend on how you handle yourself with gambling.

FREE is not free anymore since we were being watched and controlled by the system of the government if you want to be free, they consider you as a rogue one. Luckily the air is free at the moment but i don't want to see such free air will be taxed soon in the future.

Anyway, gambling is too dangerous in the long run that's why people needs to be watched so that no matter what happens to them there is always someone who could assist them. Just consider it as free security if you weren't doing bad things.

I dont think that we are bieng watched when we play online gambling but in offline maybe because there are cctv's and other security personal that watch your moves but they are only doing it for your safety  because there are also bad guys that are watching . and when it comes to tax , online gambling arent being taxed since we can use cryptos but offline gambling can possibly can .

No its not dangerous as long as the gambling is legal and as long as you dont do unwanted things like going overboard or drinking, smoking and yelling ( if you are playing offline )  . but its a good idea to bring body guards or assistant if ever you play outside so that you can be extra safe .

what I know is that the government does this to casino sites or shops, aims to collect taxes from them. because every building that stands and there is active activity, the government must ask for tax. if anonymous gambling uses crypto, gamblers will benefit, but the government will feel disadvantaged.

[jademaxsuy]

Yeah I know what you wanted to point out and that is why there are many in the likes of you that are exercising freedom of gambling. You see, cock fighting is legal in our place if it has registered and being monitored but mind you that there are cock fighting area that has been operating illegaly and they had exercise the freedom.of dping gambling.

Now, wit so much freedom given to them it resorted to conflict especially that money is the root cause of evil. A fight is very common in these illegal gambling and some reported that there are casualties from the conflict leading fight. So with this the government created a regulation and monitored this gambling activities.

We have freedom but we must be also responsible in our actions not putting others to risk. There is no absolute freedom and lucky we are having the priviledge for freedom.

Well, technology has changed a lot these days and anyone can be tracked with the IP addresses etc. Even if someone makes a site of gambling and does not declare it to the government, the information technology department can easily trace the site, the traffic coming from where etc. Also domain name registration can also tell the site belong to which country. Its almost impossible to hide anything from the government, unless you are very clever and have complete understanding of VPN, Proxies and all such things.

[jakelyson]

There is freedom and there is responsibility. Gamblers should be responsible gamblers by not gambling away their life. Casinos should be responsible by limiting the gamblers to the age of majority. Governnents are responsible so that gamblers and casinos responsibility is checked.

You are free to gamble but within the limit of the law, for without law, there will only be chaos.

[aioc]

You should be responsible for all your action, free does not mean that you are going to gamble even if you are not allowed because of your age, or the casinos think that you have too much of it and you need to undergo professional help, government are regulate gambling because it is their cash cow.

[Johnzky]

Gambling is open to all especially those who really want to gamble whether you're an adult or a minor. Let's discuss about the minors that are caught gambling in any ways will face a consequences like receiving a criminal charge and if I remember correctly it will be added to his/her criminal record or the minor's parents can be charge with an offense too if they allow their children to gambling when they are still minors or still under tha age of 21 which is the required age to gamble. I don't find any situation where there's a minor caught gambling in crypto related gambling sites.

I think it is depend on whih country are you referring because in other countries specially asian when governments are runs by corrupt officials and Red Tapes are covering the system.

But about the crypto related gambling sites?we know how anonymous the cryptocurrencies and we also know that its hard to track each users having crypto for gambling

[semobo]

You should be responsible for all your action, free does not mean that you are going to gamble even if you are not allowed because of your age, or the casinos think that you have too much of it and you need to undergo professional help, government are regulate gambling because it is their cash cow.

Many countries have strict regulations for gambling like ages,taxes even it can bring huge income to the government since gambling is one of the addictive thing can ruin our life so all the people who are gambling might know the consequences of gambling and outcome but still want to do to make more money.

[Harlot]

The financial freedom that bitcoin itself signifies is also signified by the existence of such anonymous, unregulated gambling institutions. Nobody is forcing anyone to gamble - it's all a matter of responsible choice.

If you are talking about online crypto gambling sites, you are wrong about it. They are still regulated but not in the country you are playing it with. These gambling sites are most likely have been licensed under the jurisdiction of Curacao and the fun thing about e-games gambling licenses is for most countries they are recognized and they don't prohibit their citizens to play with it. If you are part of the countries that don't recognize it they just simply block your IP address so you cannot play in them. Do not have the wrong conception that regulation towards casinos is a bad thing we have that in order to remove abuses in the business at the same time protect us. It's really not about controlling our money its about protecting them.

Sure if there is any age restrictions of entering into casino then under age cannot enter the casino and play gambling. But there is no check and balance for the online casino and anyone can make the account and start playing gambling. 

[suzanne5223]

Obviously, when you think of freedom, it usually comes with a positive connotation in the mind. Freedom is the lack of restrictions, and being able to do what you are economically incentivized to do.

Right now, the brick-and-mortar gambling world is heavily regulated. Monetary inflows and outflows are monitored, people are not let in without rigorous identity checks, expensive licenses need to be obtained from the government in order for a casino to set up shop, and so on. Clearly, the government is trying to control the world of gambling. It's their belief that we, as humans, are not able to decide for ourselves, and that our choices may have negative impacts that we did not forsee.

On one hand, this comes off as rather patronizing. It's our money and our life, and we should be able to do with it what we please. The manifestation of this idea is the realm of anonymous cryptocurrency gambling, where anybody can make an account, deposit bitcoins, and start gambling. There are usually no identity checks, no location checks, no age checks, or anything of that nature whatsoever. This is the worldview that devans, the owner of bustabit holds - he believes that we should give humans credit where credit is due. We are the smartest, most evolved organism on the planet, and we should be allowed to do what we want with our own money. We don't need a father figure in the form of the government to tell us what we can and can't do with our own funds. The financial freedom that bitcoin itself signifies is also signified by the existence of such anonymous, unregulated gambling institutions. Nobody is forcing anyone to gamble - it's all a matter of responsible choice.

However, on the other hand, gambling is not an activity that is as impactless as riding a bike or watching a movie. Gambling can have serious and profound effects on people. Their brains, their lives, their families. Gambling is addictive, and especially for children, it can cause a permanent change in one's brain chemistry. The way we process dopamine is changed dramatically once gambling comes into play: the baseline dopamine level rises higher and higher, until gamblers no longer find pleasure in normal things, and can only be happy whilst in the casino high-rolling. It's completely true that gambling is very dangerous in that manner, and the effects of gambling addiction strike not only the gambler, but his loved ones as well. There is merit in the argument that gambling should not be open and free - hell, maybe having heavily regulated casinos is actually a better option.

I'm curious as to what you guys think. Do you believe gambling should be open and free to all, and that we should be able to choose where and how to risk our money? Or, do you believe there should be regulations imposed on gamblers and gambling institutions for their own safety, and for the safety of their families?

Online gambling is already free for all and everyone is invited to do gambling online. Now, having rules and restrictions to a gambling sites is a measure of security that everyone who joined in their site has the capacity to pay and play in their games. What I mean is, those people with less assets can play but they should be wary about the consequences that they might lose it all.

Online gambling is definitely not for all mate which is why we see most of online gambling having some restrictions while some wrote 18+ on their webpage. With that been said, gambling is not for every body and who ever have little or much money and scared to face the consequences is definitely not needed in gambling sphere.

[greeklogos]

I have an addicted gambler in my family and I know how tough it may be. When it comes to addiction not only the gambler suffer, but all of his family and relatives. That's why I vote for regulation of this entertainment business.

[playboy654]

The thing is to be in gambling is every people to manage his life for prominent and if he had the quality to be a good Gambler he will do anything in the screen is it was being successful then this type of things will also been possible.

I believe that John Stuart Mill was right when he wrote that the society should not forbid a person to do anything unless these actions directly harm others.
I think that drugs should be legal, for instance, because it's a free choice of an adult person. In a similar way I find it inappropriate for government to ban gambling. It's not up to it to decide. What the government can do is try to convince people through media that gambling or drugs are bad, not ban them. As for children, I think it's mostly the responsibility of parents to make sure they don't involve in activities that are harmful to them. Adults should not be banned from doing stuff only because otherwise kids would get easier access to that stuff.

[Ucy]

I thought the identity check thing only happens in online gambling especially crypto based gambling. I am not sure if people are required to go through this checks in the physical gambling world especially where I live.

[ethereumhunter]

Clearly, the government is trying to control the world of gambling.

Because gambling industries have grown too fast now and that is why the government wants to control the gambling industry because they know that they can get much money from gambling. And with the cryptocurrency, people could play with easy, and they can stay in the dark without telling anyone.

It's their belief that we, as humans, are not able to decide for ourselves

We can decide what we want to do and what we need to have. It's an option that every human has, but many of us still confuse to choose what we want.

Nobody is forcing anyone to gamble - it's all a matter of responsible choice.

That is right, that is our money, we can do whatever we do include to playing gambling, but we must know to play gambling can cause us to lose money, and we need to know how to take responsibility if somehow we lose that money.

Gambling is addictive, and especially for children, it can cause a permanent change in one's brain chemistry.

That is why we should not engage deeper in the gambling, and once again, we will be responsible with what will happens with our life.

I'm curious as to what you guys think. Do you believe gambling should be open and free to all, and that we should be able to choose where and how to risk our money? Or, do you believe there should be regulations imposed on gamblers and gambling institutions for their own safety, and for the safety of their families?

Gambling should be a treat as entertainment and don't use gambling to make money and don't risk too much money if you don't know how to gamble with a right. I believe that in the future, there will be regulations to control the gambling industry especially for online gambling.

[syamster]

The thing is to be in gambling is every people to manage his life for prominent and if he had the quality to be a good Gambler he will do anything in the screen is it was being successful then this type of things will also been possible.

Well this is good thinking of the gamble to remain transparent while gambling and it is good to be instructed wisely by other people who are being agents but I think identity is required only in online gambling, so if people are who ask for it will get identity check but I personally t9ink it is not important step to gamble traditionally.

[Idrisu]

Our choices as humans been are not always right especially going into gambling but it is very important we understand that it is how we were made and it is through exercises this choice to we understand our individuality. Government trying control how people are involved in gambling is very important and this will eliminate manipulations and hypnotizing.
