This is legal but I can't legally pay another adult for sex or take drugs that could harm me? And there are many restrictions on gambling. It's weird how some morals are legislated but not others.

Even today we apply practices of eugenics, for example with prenatal screening for down syndrome followed by abortion. Gambling sets a very low bar when it comes to upsides.

- croes 5mo agoDrugs and gambling are ways to get controlled
- croes 5mo agoAll you mentioned can have negative side effects for third parties.

- croes 5mo agoSo there are no crimes related to drug and gambling addiction? Are you kidding me? Prostitution has a big forced prostitution problem
- NDlurker 5mo agoWould those associated crimes happen as frequently if the acts were legal and regulated? Should we ban alcohol and cars and skydiving and any other risky behavior?
- croes 5mo agoYes, they would. DUI kills people no matter if the drug is legal or illegal. Crimes to finance the next drug dose or bet also don’t care if legal or illegal. And yes, alcohol should be banned or at least not glorified
