No.

Gas and oil consumption harm the environment and hurt mankind. Should we tax them more?

What really helps mankind? Gambling is recreation, and so is theatre. Gambling can bring employment to otherwise impoverished areas. You can't say it's all bad. If you are going to start taxation based on benefit to humanity, you are going to find yourself on a very slippery slope, having to decide merit on what will inveitably be an arbitrary set of rules.
who says they aren't businesses? they should be taxed at the usual rate as any other business
should not carnivals bingo halls movie theaters and other types of entetianment not be taxed heavily since its not a business that helps mankind?
I don't know if this belongs in religion, but ok.

This is an interesting idea. Casino's are definitely more about the money than caring for their customers (the entire process is designed to actually harm the customer...kind of like smoking) - so if you had taxes, you'd see the end of things like nickel slots or a reduction in payout chance. The income is already taxed - not sure what affect you're trying to have occur. Taxing Casinos would drive up Casino prices, thus having fewer people play. That's not a bad idea, really. Most people playing are people wasting my tax dollars through Social Security benefits, or they are people who shouldn't financially be risking their money like that. Or they're people looking to do horrible things in places like Las Vegas and gambling is just the support structure for those horrible things. Either way, the reduction of gambling wouldn't be a bad thing. :-D. Ok, ya, tax the business!
