Oh my God, I am so tired of elected officials legislating morality. Because gambling is entertainment for the majority of Americans-- an entertainment that some people get addicted to, yes, but if it wasn't gambling it'd be alcohol or eBay or porn or state-run lotteries or collecting doo-dads or whatever.
Though really, I'm sure it's about the money and the states not wanting to get cut out of their pieces of the pie. It's always about the money.
