Oh look, legalized money laundering and creating gambling addicts is back on the menu again.

So awesome

I'm sure inviting the corruption machine into our lives will not have any negative consequences. I trust all powerful people to never use their power to engineer situations they can profit from, something that is definitely not an ongoing issue just south of us.

"Prediction markets are the fastest-growing segment of global financial markets," Brett Huneycutt, co-founder and chief product officer, of Wealthsimple, said in a statement."

Gambling is now finance? Well, yes, I suppose it always was and we're just dropping the pretense.

Money laundering is now so very very easy.
