It's tough, because I think outlawing 'vices' like gambling is an infringement on your individual freedom - but when it's done with an enterprise it's so much more problematic. Thinking about for instance tobacco companies vs locally grown in the backyard.

We also outlaw vices like physical violence and property theft.

Society is fundamentally counter to individual freedom, and the degree determines the nature of that society and the degree of cooperation possible within it.
