Breaking News: The Supreme Court struck down a federal ban on commercial sports betting, paving the way for more states to allow it

In a boost for the prospect of commercial sports gambling across the nation, the Supreme Court on Monday struck down a federal law that effectively banned such gambling in most states.

The case concerned New Jersey, but it has implications for other states eager to allow and tax sports gambling. Americans are estimated to annually place $150 billion in illegal wagers on sports.

Why not we have lotteries ? Just another form of passive taxation that preys on the impulsive.
