Casinos are always being run in their own way, even the casinos themselves advise players to be responsible, but if a gambler is not responsible, then the casino is not at fault.
And this is the most important thing to highlight, many think that the Addiction problems of many players are due to the casinos, but this is not the case , we must understand that the problems of people due to gambling are their responsibility and not the casinos. But how do you change the mindset of a conglomerate called society? It's very difficult nowadays.
Casinos operate as businesses and they already put out warnings about responsible gambling to the gamblers which is one of their core mandate or responsibility to do. But at the end of the day it is still left for the gambler to choose for themselves what is best as to whether they should ignore their limits or self control as it is a responsibility that falls on the individual and not the casino.
So whenever you see someone blaming casinos of their irresponsible gambling, just know that they are avoiding their personal accountability which is a part of their big problem already.
This country is actually making the right move by seeing gambling as a way to help boost the economy. Contrary to what others think that gambling only destroys lives, if this plan really gets realized it could actually improve lives by creating jobs.
And from the looks of it, the goal is to boost tourism, meaning the target isn’t really the locals. Their pockets won’t be the ones getting hurt, while the country still benefits from job creation and added economic activity.
I could not agree with you that they attract gambler who are touroists but the gambling site whether it is online or offline that can be used by anyone whether local and or tourists though maximum of them are local instead of the tourists. I think the sufferer are locals though only few people might be benefitted by the site.
The idea is not that gambling has no negative effects per say but it is that if you manage gambling properly, it can be used as an economic tool and a perfect example is when you create a casino company or well regulated gambling spaces, it can bring jobs, improve tourism and bring about revenue generation for the country.
It is like you mentioned about gambling platforms which are accessible to everyone and not just the tourists alone and trust me the locals will as a matter of fact always make up a large part of the users than even the tourists.
