I express my opinion on the texts on the following sites.

I am against the casino bill. If the casino is built in Japan there is a possibility that a good economic effect will occur. But we also have to think about the bad influence that will be brought about when the casino is built.
The construction of the casino has many disadvantages. First of all, there is a possibility that the number of people who become gambling addiction increases. Approximately 10% of Japanese people are gambling addicts. This is a very high percentage worldwide, about sevenfold compared to the United States, 32 times compared to Norway. If casinos are built, it is clear that Japanese gambling addiction becomes an increasingly bigger problem. Secondly, there are also suspicions about economic effects. There is a report that an economic loss occurred in a casino called Kangwon Land in Korea. There are 17 casinos in Korea, but Gangwon Land is the only casino available to their citizens. There are lots of pawn shops around Kangwon Land, homeless is overflowing on the street. People who were economically killed by casinos commit crimes, so public security has deteriorated and the number of suicide has also increased about 1.8 times. The Korean government was forced to spend a huge amount of money to deal with these problems. There is also a research report that Korea's cost of such measures has become about five times the economic profit. Therefore, even economic profit, which is the biggest reason for building a casino in Japan, is quite doubtful. Thirdly, casinos can become a source of funds of organized crime groups and become a hotbed of money laundering. People who agree with the casino claim that there is no problem as organized crime groups can’t participate in casinos. However, organized crime groups can use casinos as a source of funds even if they are not directly involved. Organized crime groups can send employees to the casino or be involved as business partners. In addition, organized crime groups may benefit from illegal lending of money to casino users. The problem of money laundering is also serious. In fact, allegations that Chinese bureaucrats have done money laundering in Macau casinos are reported. I strongly disagree with building a casino due to the above many problems.
