What's the big deal about gambling?

Why is it that some American states outlaw gambling? Also in places where it's legal, why do you have to be 18 to gamble?

It's extremely addictive, same way cigarettes and booze are illegal until you're 18.

Yeah, it's very addictive and you can quickly lose your money.

I think anything that's really addicting and can keep you from thinking straight is dangerous. Not saying you should never go have fun at the casino but I would think a lot of kids can't be trusted with their own money. So if you ask me it might just for their own good. Idk what the real official reason is though. That's just my take on it

Yeah, I think it has to be illegal for under-18s because of the highly addictive nature of it. It's bad enough for adults with steady jobs to curb particularly bad gambling addictions, let alone kids with no source of income. Best to let adults make that mistake.

As far as it's legality, I don't believe it should be illegal anywhere for adults.

18? I'm pretty sure it's 21 mostly everywhere. At least in the US anyways.

It's 18 here in the UK and in a lot of European countries.

Greetings. I will be your waifu this season.

I don't think it should be illegal in general but I think it should be illegal to trick your customers, like how casino's hide clocks so you don't know how long you've been there.

That s*** just prays on those with addictive personalities, it's ultimately their choice of course but pushing them down that path is pretty immoral imo.

I believe it should be legal, but the age minimums are important because of how addictive gambling can be and the nature of gambling in general.
