Neither conservative nor Mormon, but online gambling is an addictive scourge that ruins lives, and I'd love to see it banned broadly. And go ahead and ban paid loot boxes as well.

I don't love casinos or lotteries, but at least there's the friction of having to travel to a physical location to feed your addiction.

And then there's the whole "insider trading" and "gambling on war" angles that come into play with prediction markets.

As I get older I'm starting to realize, the Christians were right about everything.

can we stop calling them "prediction markets" and please call them what they actually are: gambling

Coming soon:
