Do you smoke or ever eat? These habits certainly aren't good for mankind, but they're perfectly legal. I went to a casino in Biloxi, MS. two Sundays ago, and it was packed with adults who seemed to be having a great time.

Plus I have news for you! The reason I'm so hot on internet gambling is that it is very similar to online wagering in the stock market which no one seems moralistic about. Both are all cash transactions; no need for UPS or FedEx. Plus a lot more folks gamble than play the stock market. And the internet is fast making inroad into the blue collar folks who supposedly make up the bulk of gamblers. Plus, at least initially, online gamblers have an advantage. You can count cards in online blackjack. I can't think of any inherent advantages to online stock trading.
