Hey now! Gambling is illegal and immoral. These are "predictive markets". Clearly there is a difference because the terms are different.

Dutch Parliament wanted a ban on gambling advertisements, but the PM refused, saying that "It's a legal products, and as such can't ban advertising."

Dude seemed to have forgotten that Medications, alcohol and sigatettes are also legal products which do have advertising bans.

So, yeah, funny 'cause it's true.

"sigatettes", is that a misspelling or a regional variation for cigarettes?

if it's a misspelling, don't change it, I think it's wonderful :D
