"Video Games", I mean, digital slot machines with a game on the side was doing this just fine before sports gambling was legalized.
Hell, even Lego is in on the Gacha action! Gambling is too profitable an endeavor to allow in a market economy. It only serves to snuff out all the oxygen for less scummy business.
- Nasrudith 2y agoI don't think lowering the profit margins of gambling would make the issue much better given the problems are in the externalities and non-rational acting of the gambler. Outside of perhaps very "technically correct" and restrictive, like literally restricting people to nickle bets per game, in which case time would probably be the bottleneck to financial ruination (leaving only time-consumption life ruination) and probably would drive gambling underground.
