I can play in a casino. I can legally go to OTB and lose all my money gambling on horse races. I can spend the grocery money on lottery tickets. I can go gamble to my hearts content at Jai Alai in the state of Florida. I can trade stocks, options, futures etc" AND don't forget..... you can also go to the bar, get shitfaced, go home and beat up your wife and kids. No biggie so long as you beat her hard enough to shut her up. “Oh, it’s so incredibly stupid. I can play in a casino. I can legally go to OTB and lose all my money gambling on horse races.
