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.
