Question: In this case, would you think the ends justify the means?
There was a post about online gambling (most predominately 'online poker'), and how apparently some people are trying to pass legislation to get it active in the US again.
Now, first off, many people (of course) say it was not right that the 'right' to make their own decision was taken away (i.e., whether or not they play), however, it was. Now, "they" are considering letting the public make their own decision again with respect to online gambling (i.e., poker). However, the online poker scene has been way overhyped, and I think most people's burning desire to play poker is the idea of 'getting rich quick'. They think that they can deposit a couple hundred dollars, and 3-4 hours later walk away with $5,000. Some people do. Most don't.
Now, in this other thread, a lot of people were salivating at the thought of being able to offer 'affiliate' (gambling) products, because it would be a lucrative market. Of course it would.
However, in order to make money with respect to the gambling scene, generally speaking other people will be losing money, and losing big. So if you were to make $5,000/month, most likely the people playing would be losing at least $50,000 or more in order for you to make $5,000. Would you be happy with that?
