AFAIK Australia is most gambling addicted western country, loosing the most money per capita at the pokies.

>It’s difficult to compare how normalised it is here versus what the US is currently going through.

I remember how Henry Ford was giving his employee great benefits to attract the best workers so the Dodge brothers bought Ford shares to become shareholders, then sued Henry Ford and won because he wasn't doing what's good for the shareholders.

Similarly, I feel like if you'd try to regulate these anti humane businesses and practices you'd get sued because you're doing something that hurts shareholders.
