because it is basically no lose gambling.

Depends on how you define gambling but generally speaking, if the odds are in your favour I consider it an investment with a certain risk factor, rather than gambling. In a casino, the house is not considered a gambler, the player is because the odds are in the house's favour.
because it is basically no lose gambling.
If I were a "risk assessor" and saw someone had been gambling a fixed amount every month for the past 10 years I'd immediately think this guy is highly disciplined and has good self control. Gambling should always be considered entertainment, never a way of making money, and if you have a fixed budget for "entertainment" out of every wage then there's nothing wrong with that.
But yeah if someone's losing their "budget" month after month they should probably consider finding another form of entertainment. Unless they believe it's a form of making money.

Gambling is just an idiot tax.

Translation:
"I don't gamble ergo it's for idiots. I'm probably a non-smoking teetotal vegan who only buys fair trade, organic food and wear clothes made of hemp. I don't do anything fun with my money because it's all idiot tax. My personality has been likened to a beige Ford Mondeo diesel with cloth interior and keep-fit window winders."
Give or take.

No one is forced to gamble lol, how can you call it a tax lmao.
You're only an idiot if you're a crap gambler making silly bets and then keep going back again and again.
