People just need to reset their mind and stop thinking that gambling is a money issues solution, but an entertainment. Then people would stop considering that it is bad for society. Smoking is also bad for society, but some smoke to lose stress, government receive huge budget refill with excise tax, cigarettes' factories give working places for thousands of people, shops make profit through trading. Huge bad industry give benefits for lots of people, when only some of smokers have real hard health problems.
Absolutely. Each of us decides for himself what he can bring to society. I am sure that my passion for gambling has not brought anything bad to society, because I play only with money that I earn on my own and I do not cross the line of the law because of gambling.
If a person does not care about everything, he will bring negativity to society. There are many levers for this and he does not even need to gamble.
Right and indeed for that problem I think it depends on the level of concern you have, if you care about other people then you should not bring other people to get involved with the habits you have even if you advise them to become responsible gamblers, because we know that gambling is an activity that can be very high risk so of course there is a possibility for other people to get involved in an impulsive approach even though they previously told us that they would become responsible gamblers.
On the other hand I think the gambling habits that we have are likely to have a bad impact on other people when we use loans as an alternative to gambling, because in most cases loans can usually be a trigger for problems especially when the loan is used to fulfill your gambling habits, but I would say that most likely this will only be done by gamblers who have an impulsive approach, because if they have a mindset and approach like you have where you only gamble when you have personal money that you can afford to lose then borrowing will not be something you will choose just to fulfill your gambling habits.
