okay well that sucks because people still like precisely the people who want to gamble and do high thc weed the most are exactly the ones that are just going to go do more of it in really shady circumstances because if you don't let like new jersey's online casinos let you gamble guess who you're gambling with the guy named saul and if you lose money to saul he's not taking your money away he's taking kneecaps for that there's bad news for everyone and you know it's just shady shady stuff

So it's difficult to make these things outright illegal, even if most of us are like, well, yeah, just make it illegal. Who cares? The other problem is most people who gamble and most people who do marijuana do so responsibly and to great effect. And it's a great time. And so you're saying, okay, well, literally one or 2% of people are having a problem.

We're going to ban this for 98 or 99% of the rest of you. But that seems kind of curious, right? If we took children into account as citizens of our country, which they are, can you imagine like banning everything for adults that should also be banned for children? I mean, good God, you wouldn't be able to drive a car. It's crazy.

Also, cars kill way more people than gambling and marijuana or any of that stuff. So we're left with this thing of like, okay, we can't just ban these things. That just didn't work. What are we supposed to do?

And the answer, I think, just as kind of weaving through this whole podcast is getting to the individual, finding out what their needs are, what their attitudes are, what their proclivities, where they are in their mental space. Are they interested in fixing a problem?

And if there's pharmacology that we can leverage, like the Ozempics of the world, which have really awesome anti-addictive properties, in many cases, maybe that's the right answer.
