Governments want that tax income. They want that business to boom. They don’t care about the side effects.

Do they advertise sports gambling on tv?
In California I don’t see this. You do get the occasional ad for an Indian casinos, or Las Vegas though.
Some states have recently legalized it, and, oh boy, no time was spared filling every commercial break with ads for it.
Edit his mug so it doesn't have that Nazis name on it. Maybe have it say boot or dumbass lol
I get why we want to get away from that dumbass(heh) that's the normal part of this meme?
But Red would give zero fucks about gambling.

They legalized online gambling and ads for it a couple of years ago in the Netherlands. It's already causing problems with addiction. I personally think all ads for gambling and alcoholic beverages should be banned.
the U.K. enters the chat
The worst are podcast ads. It's like 30% "you can win $100 on a $10 bet with promo code xyz" and 70% disclaimers and gambling addiction hotline numbers.
At least those are usually clearly marked and easy to skip in a halfway decent podcast player like Pocket Casts, though..

Yes
Make space for me on that seat
Or I'll put my foot up your ass!
It is illegal in some states. You should only be able to advertise things that are legal.
Not sure you should even be allowed to advertise legal things except in very specific cases. It's an incredibly toxic industry that is doing a shitload of the heavy lifting of corporations destroying the world..
