    But market determines value based on demand/supply. And if you unload too much supply into the world, the price will drop. I have no clue why people try to argue that regulating this will change anything.

    Remove it all, sure. But regulating the odds won’t do a single thing. Unless you don’t like super-rare items, that is about the only thing that regulations can change.

      The larger problem is the presence of children and other young people using it to gamble. Check my other comment to see what I mean with a first hand account of it.

        Look, my point is: we should just ban any gambling. It never does any good, any regulations and taxes end up being paid by the poorest ones. Children or not, just stop it altogether.

          There should be regulations on it to prevent addictions but I don’t know about banning all together.

            What’s the point?

            Fun? Please, casino games are hilarously bad.

            Money? It takes from the poor, and even those who win end up wasting it away.

            Thrill? I hope not.

            So why? Money laundering? Data collection?
