I agree that casinos are an evil business, and I would be extremely wary of making people worse off in a hope to “make it up” by charitable contributions.
@Brad West🔸 have already answered point by point, so I’ll just add that I believe it’s better to think of my proposal as a charity, that also provides games to it’s customers, rather than casino that donates it’s profits.
I’d argue that regular casinos are net positive for people without a gambling addiction, who treat is as an evening entertainment with an almost guaranteed loss. The industry preys on people who lost more then they could afford and are trying to get even, and it is not possible case.
I struggle to imagine someone, who would donate more to their DAF that they feel comfortable with because they felt devastated that money went to the charity of not their choice.
I appreciate your take @Ozzie Gooen.
