The fact that people lose money for no reason other than delusion that they're going to make a lot of money doing nothing is enough proof. Gambling is fundamentally immoral and parasitic.
- icebraining 6y agoMost players don't hold any such delusion, they just like the thrill of the chance despite knowing it's quite unlikely. Gambling addicts are quite a small percentage, compared to the millions who spend a coffee cup's worth every week on a lottery ticket. If you're going to outlaw an activity because a small percentage can't control themselves, you'll have to outlaw quite a few activities.
