On the GOP Factions and Gambling

With the Super Bowl coming up, let’s review where the factions stand on legalized gambling:

  1. CLs: Why not? It’s purely a matter of personal responsibility. People should be free to gamble if they want. Keep the state out of it!
  2. PBPs: There’s money to be made here. Count us in.
  3. CDs: Excessive gambling hurts families and society as a whole. It needs to be strictly controlled.
  4. Reactionaries: Same as CDs. We support efforts to maintain traditional morality.

As you can see, there is no consensus position here. Fortunately for the GOP, gambling isn’t nearly as important to the flock as, say, abortion.
