I'm wondering why gambling(except for lotteries and casinos, etc.) was made illegal? Was it a 'we must protect people from themselves' type of law? Or a 'casinos have lobbied for protection of their business' type of law? Or 'this type of industry requires regulation but its too damn expensive to regulate' type of law?

I say this as the guy who consistently makes fun of the lottery while also buying video game 'this is totally not gambling either' loot chests.
