So is sugar. Would you ban that? People have agency and choice
- the_cat_kittles 2y agoshades of grey and tradeoffs. gambling has a very clear and well studied negative effect on a small but sizeable percent of people and its not that great for everyone else. its my opinion were better off without it
- kelseyfrog 2y agoConsistency is overrated. Ban gambling
- idle_zealot 2y agoYou don't ban people from consuming sugar, you ban companies from mass-producing food with unhealthy amounts of it. It's about friction and incentives. If you want to buy a bag of sugar and bake a cake that's fine.
- wellthisisgreat 2y agoAbsolutely regulate sugary drinks like cigarettes
- np_tedious 2y agoI do think sugar should be regulated more and probably excised taxed, but banning is a different thing altogether
- wellthisisgreat 2y agoI meant you can buy it but the health hazards are plastered all over
