Question by : should gambling be legal?
How do you feel about legalizing gambling? I think we should. Here’s why…
1. It doesn’t hurt you
2. It’s my money
3. I’m an adult (24)
4. What I do with my money is my business
5. If it’s legal, we can tax it
6. I should be able to make my own decisions. Even poor ones
7. People who gamble and lose their house, cars, student loans, etc. should be the ones responsible, and NOT receive welfare.
8. If you gamble away your social security or your life savings, it’s your problem, not mine, and certainly not other taxpayers.
Personally, I’ve been gambling once. I brought 8 bucks. lost 8 bucks. I made that decision. Will I go back? probably. Will I lose money? probably. I have a rule. The money I bring to spend goes in my right pocket. Money I win goes in the left.
ALSO: don’t shoot this back in my face and throw prostitution/drugs into the argument. I support state run brothels. Similar argument to gambling. It’s my life, keep out of it.
sorry. I meant STATE run casinos. most don’t have them. my nearest one is an indian casino 2 hours away.
to the purple… money is amoral. neither good nor evil. money isn’t the root of all evil. THE love of money is the root of all evil. Same thing with guns. guns don’t kill people. people kill people.
