3 of these require significant training or at least licensing and the last one is banned in the majority of western nations.

I'm with you that personal responsibility and freedom should be the norm, but active predators (Drug dealers, bookies, social media companies) should probably have limits put on what they're allowed to do.

I'm not against requiring training on math and statistics for gamblers.

For your last statement, I agree, "active predators" should be restricted or punished because their intent is to cause harm at the cost of others for profit. but if they're just selling the "drug", why should that be restricted? You can force them to inform their customers of the harm,but that's about it.

This is the entire gambling industry! Do you think they don't know that their best customers are addicts who are blowing their kids' college fund?

You're probably right, so regulate and restrict the gambling industry, not individuals.
