... and crypto and stock trading apps are part and parcel of that pocket casino:

A particular challenge for financial reform is that the public typically isn’t very interested in supporting these kinds of policies except immediately after a financial crisis – but sometimes there are other issues that financial reformers can hitch their wagons to, and given how much traditional finance has devolved into gambling, financial reform might find broader support amidst a backlash against online sports betting.

Problem gambling has risen sharply in the United States in the last six years, and it’s likely to get worse as people start to feel the increased economic precarity unleashed by the “One Big Beautiful Bill” (if I wanted to be really cynical, I might suggest that a goal of that bill was to create a bigger market of desperate people for the sports betting and crypto industries to exploit…). The anti-cigarette movement was a grass roots movement motivated by the noxious health consequences of smoking and second-hand smoke, and as the health and other social costs of problem gambling become more apparent in our communities, I wouldn’t be surprised if we started to see similar growth in grass roots movements targeting online betting. If we do, we should work to make sure that speculative finance is also a target of those movements’ ire.
