Gambling

You can never stop people betting - it's like a game or contest. But that's okay, in the way of two people saying, "I bet you a beer she's wearing falsies" or "The one who guesses closest to the final score has his shoes shined by the loser" kind of thing. What's not okay is governments and other organized crime being in the huge-profit business of cheating the populace in sucker-bets.
Of course, i'm a little bit biased.

To each their own. If people want to snow ski they do, if they want to gamble they do that too. So it isn't a bad thing because everyone can choose what types of ways they want to spend their incomes.

I consider skiing much less harmful for society than gambling. We might even say the former is exercise and good for the sedentary folks around here to do.
True, both have potential to injure others besides just the partaker in the activity whether skiing or gambling, but I think the latter degrades society in general.

Gambling is fine, but I don't agree with a policy that allows a person to give, sell or gamble away ones personal necessities because you burden the rest of society.
No citizen should be able to loose one dollar of equity in housing payments by giving, selling or gambling (this removes legality of renting housing). The same should apply to not selling, giving or gambling one's food, power bill, toilet paper, etc. All the rest you can gamble, because you will not put other humans (who are compassionate by nature) in a position to help you.
How can this be done? Change the nature of how we control our contracts in society and digitize currency. But, we'll be safe with digital currency if our necessities are protected by a policy that prevents the present parasitic contracts (one's that allow necessities to be sold, given or gambled).
Although, we would need that same non-predatory policy to change lending also, otherwise people can be put in perpetual economic slavery. You may think they've worked on this, but predatory principles are still alive and well.
When currency is digital, no one gets a choice not to pay their bills. Everything is handled during a deposit on your account. First the necessities are taken (housing, food,etc.), then credit card luxuries (sustainable contracts), then the rest is left for you to gamble if you want.
No one should be able to deprive you of the things that will make your unproductive in society (home evictions, car repos). If you owe more than you make, soon, you may be asked by the government to take an assignment from a unified staffing agency. This staffing agency is a nationalisation of all staffing agencies. It's contracted out to the staffing agency with the best business plan. That puts us all the same page, jobs all on one list. Oh,and the welfare office is this staffing agency. If you can't find work, they find you work. If they can't be good leader by giving you work,they'll be a good leader and keep you ready to work. That means you don't loose equity in your home, you have something eat and you have fresh roll of toilet paper.
This all snowballed into other assumed changes, because to make things balance we have to fix a lot of things at the fundamental level. Our present attitude of periphery knob turning will never do it. When we realise this is our only way to improves thing in America, we'll finally have a candidate that have a worthy platform.
