The Economist

Some decent reads in regards to gambling from the economist. 11 articles in total.

A special report on gambling: Sure thing | The Economist

Personally think the US should legalize and tax it especially given the huge defecits a lot of states are facing.

America’s National Council on Problem Gambling estimates that 1% of American adults are pathological gamblers and another 2-3% have problems controlling their habit.

Seth: Fogell, this ID says that you're 25 years old. Why wouldn't you just put 21, man?
Fogell: Seth, Seth, Seth. Listen up, ass-face: every day, hundreds of kids go into the liquor store with fake IDs, and every single one says they're 21. Pssh, how many 21 year olds do you think there are in this town? It's called f*cking strategy, alright?
