Is there a good argument against sports betting?

Christianity opposes it
It ruins lives

It comes down to "Is it the Government's job to protect the people from themselves?"


Religious-based arguments in this scenario don't really hold any weight.

I'm with you bro.

I'm just saying, look at your money. In God We Trust.

Christianity carries a lot of weight in the US. Gambling is viewed as immoral and its impossible to argue that it hasn't ruined lives.

So should the government protect people or should people be allowed to walk themselves off a cliff if they are stupid or get addicted?

I'm on the latter side but it's easy to just call that soulless or heartless.
