The government can not stop jobless person seeks money from gambling games because they think that they will have a chance to make money from that.
That's wrong, the government can stop them by banning a casino or a gambling platform.
A jobless person seeking some relief from gambling, I don't think that would solve the problem, instead it will only make the problem worst.
First it did violate the rule of "gamble what you can afford to lose only" these people are jobless, hence they should not be allowed to gamble.
Do you actually think banning anything from the government actually stops it? In that case Bitcoin or cryptocurrencies, in general, would be long dead. How many times was Bitcoin banned across the world? And what made you not stop caring about it?
The only way anything can be stopped if there is a cultural renaissance about that thing you are talking about, something big and dark enough to let people agree unanimously that it is bad. Think about what the Germans did to the jews, only because they stooped to that level, did they come out now with a refreshed anti-racist culture. Well, I am not saying that something as big as jew elimination needs to happen for gambling but at least half a dozen people going broke and bankrupt losing everything they have and then some would serve as a good reminder for the locals to not engage in it.
That's just what I think.
