As a Xennial it has been hard to watch how mainstream gambling and its ads have become.

I was taught gambling was foolish, and abstained. Later I came to appreciate that some folks can gamble with losses in mind and have fun. Sadly too many just cannot self regulate, so societal limits are necessary even if it means a bit less fun for those who can afford to lose a lot.

Now everything is out of balance. The US president himself is fleecing his own supporters, his family profits from deregulating and even promoting online gambling, and all the competent regulators have been bought or run out of town.
