When it comes to generating revenue for a state, 50% of adults favor allowing casino gambling in their own state. Thirty-seven percent (37%) oppose such gambling in their state I don't like the wording on that. It bias is subtle but basically its treating allowing gambling as the opposite of opposing gambling, suggesting allowing gambling is supporting gambling. But allowing something doesn't mean you like or support it (you might, but it isn't necessary), it just means you support freedom. For someone who thinks gambling in general, or online poker in particular is wrong, I'd suggest he consider these points --- "When your response to everything that is wrong with the world is to say, 'there ought to be a law,' you are saying that you hold freedom very cheap." - Thomas Sowell "It is indeed probable that more harm and misery have been caused by men determined to use coercion to stamp out a moral evil than by men intent on doing evil." -- F.A. Hayek "A free man must be able to endure it when his fellow men act and live otherwise than he considers proper. He must free himself from the habit, just as soon as something does not please him, of calling for the police." - Ludwig von Mises
