Why?

I've always wondered why gambling on sports is banned almost everywhere. If states were to open their own sports gambling establishments (not mixed in with the casinos that seem to be everywhere now), they could regulate the industry to their heart's content and probably generate more revenue than their lotteries do.

Think about a sports bar with big screens everywhere showing every game you can find. Put in a section with recliners for people to watch the games as well as a restaurant and I think you'd have lines of people waiting to get in, especially on football Sundays.

No, the last thing we need is another government-enforced, government monopoly. Either make it legal or don't- not illegal for anyone except the government.
