America Is Scaling Sin in Real Time

Axios: “Las Vegas has long been known as Sin City for its 24/7 access to all kinds of indecencies.”

“America is quickly becoming Sin Nation. Or, as President Trump put it while discussing prediction markets in the Oval Office last month: ‘The whole world, unfortunately, has become somewhat of a casino.’”

“Once-forbidden vices — weed, gambling and porn — are no longer confined to back alleys or the desert. They’re ubiquitous, digital and spreading at a pace that has outstripped the country’s social and regulatory guardrails.”

“Governments didn’t turn a blind eye to most of this behavior. They encouraged it. We’re scaling sin in real time.”
