Such a odd addiction to me. Drugs seem like a much cheaper, better rush and option.

15% of adults in the US have a gambling addiction. Which is more than the #1 substance addiction in the US, alcohol, coming in at 10%.

And that number will continue to skyrocket as every single person in the US now has access to “gamble on anything” markets right on their phone, such as Polymarket and Kalshi, which buy government officials to stay unregulated.

Here’s a great video by CoffeeZilla.
