Sports Betting Legalization in Georgia

[GA 1911]

I don't care. I am sure not gambling on anything that I can't get an advantage.

I have never even bought a lottery ticket.

I couldn't care less about the morality of it. But it's not good for sports. In any case, as Georgia continues to get bluer more gambling, including casino gambling, will be legalized.
I'd open a payday loan business.

Your stance against it is that it’s not good for sports? It’s a huge industry already whether or not the state legalizes it. There are already out-of-state sports books available as well as a black market. At some point, we need to be practical. If we’re going to be principled, then block it and get rid of the lotto while we’re at it. They’re still going to exist anyway but at least we’d be consistent.

I am for bullish on GA gambling although I have never bought a ticket. It's a tax on people that have no math degree.

I will not buy a bet on what was called the numbers game.

I say fund your retirement account to the maximum as allowed. I am 70% in stocks and another in 30% in safe bonds. This is my gambling thing which is up 10% this year.

I totally agree. Generally gambling is throwing your hard earned money away

It's a failure of our school system. And the failure of our school dilatators...

They have failed to teach our kids. I went to GA public schools and never learned anything until I entered UGA.. I barely got a MBA while my wife was in a private school and a ticket to Med school.

The GA schools are all failures of Education. I want my money back.

Yeah I'm not into the "everybody else is doing it" as justification, for anything.
I'm not for making it, illegal. I simply think it's a bad idea. For multiple reasons.

What’s the correlation? People who are bad with money can already go to any gas station and blow the money they need to pay their bills on scratchoffs. If someone wants to place sports bets, they can already do it online or go to a bookie. What does it have to do with low wages or welfare?
