Some prediction markets can be gambling, some not. Gambling is a broader category that does not include all of the prediction markets.

As much as I hate what gambling does on the society, I'm still not sure if banning this activity counts as freedom. I believe that grown consenting adults do have a free will and should have the ability to destroy their lives if they s

I was always curious how come firing a person is a risk in the US culture. Outside of the US it's almost never done like that and a person fired is expected to be cooperative and probably even continue working for another two weeks. An
