But that's partially the point, people's dreams of escaping their situation is used to exploit them. Then the state is funneling the money out of the most poor and desperate, which is out right depravity, to benefit mostly everyb

You are misunderstanding the point that I made. I'm not saying that gambling isn't a vice nor am I condoning such behavior, put rather the state allowing or pushing such a vice disproportionally into poor Black neighborhoods is a

Exactly. It's not a situation of well off people going somewhere to spend extra cash, as it is exploiting desperate people hoping to find some miracle to escape their circumstances, by shoving a negative vice in front of them.

You seem to be also missing the point of these lottery retailers being disproportionately clustered in the poor Black neighborhoods. The "math problem" also involves pushing the distribution of the "vice" off on them (w

Not at all surprised that these state lotteries in America are taking advantage of poor Black people. It's just another demonstration of how various exploitative systems are put in place for such purposes, like the school-to-prison pi

I think the answer lies more in males being effeminized by male hormonal birth control pills. Not to mention all the environmental contaminants, like plastics, which can have estrogen-like affects and are reducing sperm counts by themselve

Exactly. If anything, provable reversible vasectomies are arguably the way to go, where you are not creating a concern of being effeminized by male hormonal birth control pills. It amazes me how more effort and money aren't put into

I think V will persevere, because the community has enough support and momentum to continue, and because the direction and syntax of the language will continually attract as well. Even the outrageous trolling and harsh criticisms also bring

Out of curiosity, I checked the discussion in which you referred to by link. The person in question is not a developer or contributor, but appears to be passionate about the discussion. I don't think it's bad to have a differenc

Another C alternative that people might want to check out or keep an eye on is Vlang ( https://vlang.io/ , https://github.com/vlang/v/blob/master/doc/docs.md ).
