Option 3, but not because of any "serious ethical consequences".  Rather, commercial gambling needs to be restricted to keep down the tackiness factor to a manageable level.  It simply is not desirable to have an electronic gaming machine in every convenience store, but that's what happened around here when video poker was legal.  Casino gaming is fine, private gaming is fine, but when it intrudes into ordinary businesses it becomes a quality of life issue.
