Truniht posted:how bad was gambling and betting prior to the great depression quote:During the 19th century, vices such as gambling, alcohol, and narcotics had been popular throughout the United States in spite of not always being technically legal. Enforcement against these vices had always been spotty. Indeed, most major cities established red-light districts to regulate gambling and prostitution despite the fact that these vices were typically illegal. However, with the rise of the progressive movement in the early 20th century, laws gradually became tighter with most gambling, alcohol, and narcotics outlawed by the 1920s. Because of widespread public opposition to these prohibitions, especially alcohol, a great economic opportunity was created for criminal enterprises. Organized crime blossomed during this era, particularly the American Mafia.[127] After the 18th Amendment went into effect, bootlegging became widespread. So lucrative were these vices that some entire cities in the U.S. became illegal gaming centers with vice actually supported by the local governments. Notable examples include Miami, Florida, and Galveston, Texas. there was a lot of it and the attempt to get rid of vice made it worse because that just made the mob ultra-rich and politically influential when they took over everything that was outlawed

AARD VARKMAN posted:it's like 10 pics of various juice blends labeled as, for example, "mango passionfruit" but all being like 50%+ applejuice This isn't really a new thing anyway, it's like suddenly noticing that all the tilapia was replaced with cod It used to be all pear juice. I think they bulk out most juice blends with whatever relatively neutral flavored and colored juice is cheapest on the commodities market. I've seen it done with white grape juice too.

if we could only do third party insurance contracts on sports gambling outcomes, then securitize those insurance contracts, then create triple-leveraged inverse ETFs out of those securities, then sell options on those ETFs then we'd be doing some real economic growth
