I agree to an extent.
My opinion is we need a bit of a brute force approach to help correct how far off course compared to the rest of the world we are.
Ban advertising.
Tax the venues with pokies - rla revenue profit model that makes having them in clubs / pubs net negative to anyone running a venue.
Tax online gambling, ban their advertising.
Block non conforming online gambling sites.
Etc.
We are over 5 times the per capita spend of second place on gambling spend globally. Until we aren't first things need to drastically change.
I'm legit surprised some big stock brokerage or finance firm hasn't loaded up to the tits on Tesla short positions and then sent in a couple of Luigi's.
