The older I get the more I hate gambling. When i was younger I tended to think "hey it's their choice" but i've realized how unfair our society is in terms of things like this.

Food, gambling, etc. are all backed by hordes of brilliant well paid people trying to get you to ruin your life so they make money. On the other side is just regular people like us stressed out trying to survive.

This isn't some "freedom" issue, it's an incredibly huge power asymmetry and I think "we the people" need protection from these forces

No thank you, I can protect myself.

Let's let 8 year olds drive drunk. I'm more than capable of spotting them on the road and avoiding them.

Will my 8 year old be exposed to sports gambling commercials?

If they like sports at all you absolutely know they will.
