How about voters decides if they allow gambling to be legalize in their country?

The process is not by voting because even if people voted for gambling to be allowed in a country, it is very obvious that the government will still maintain their regulations upon it and uses their own approach against gambling, the fact is that the government know what the people wants and they should try as much as possible to give them access to their right without voting it.

Government policies are in some ways influenced by considerations of national stability rather than just taking the opinion of the people on matters of gambling. The authorities will be reluctant to relinquish total control so as to reduce a possible negative social impact in the future. Although it is agreeable that the rights of people must be addressed using a transparent system of regulation, as a matter of fact, governments also have their own security interests that do not always translate directly with the wishes of the people.

 If government decide to let the citizens to decide whether to kegalize gambling or not in the country where I came from, the outcome will be that so many people will want gambling to be ban. Those religious people won't support it at all even though most of them do gamble. Unless the decision will be only left for those that gamble to decide whether gambling is to be legalized or not  but if it is for all citizens to decide, I think the outcome will be to ban gambling. Nevertheless, gambling is already legalized in my country.

I dont think that voting will be fair, because those who have never gambled will vote against it, those who have gambled and lost will most likely also vote against it, also people after reading stories how people turn addicted will also vote against. We will get a lot of "NO" votes from those who never involved in gambling and never want to. To make it fair, those who are allowed to vote must be limited, but also will be unfair against others.

but if you think that voting will amount to this large number of negative outcomes like you are currently mentioning the amount of population who are most likely to vote against gambling goes to show that gambling is not really the best for us as people and should not be encouraged. If it was a good something we would have seen more positive responses and you will have also been more confident about the outcome of the voting but since it is not a good something that’s why you are predicting a negative outcome. We still need to do better on how we see gambling over all and avoid to allow gambling sweep away the wealth we have gathered with our hard work and great work.

The fear of biased voting result is an indication of tension between the peoplle and the moral perspectives of the entire society. When a majority turn away gambling, it can be an indicator that they are conscious of the social dangers that much more than money are involved. Well, it is indeed true that we need to be more careful in using our wealth such that we are not tempted to waste it by engaging in speculative activities which in most cases destroy our future.

Voting will never be fair,  because we have less gamblers than people who dont gamble. We only hear positive about gambling, when someone wins jackpot, and even then most of people are jealous. Rest of content about gambling we get are mostly negative. Non-gamblers will vote against, some of gamblers will vote against because they have lost or think casinos treated them unfair, and only minority will vote for. For gambling to get legalized by voting, it is a loss for gambling industry from the start.

Result will still be in favor of banning the gambling industry. Because gambling had bad reputation and many non gamblers dislike it. So I guess its good that there's some legal entities handle this matter.

Since they can provably decide whether if gambling is doing not only for their economy also with their people or there's nothing to gain from this industry. If people will not became greedy and doing self destructive activities while gambling maybe they won't experience those big problems. Also people will not think that gambling is 100% bad, but rather there are people will say that its good form getting entertainment.
