Letting the old folks live out their lives and die at home is a good thing; they'll enjoy a better quality of life and they won't be stuck with crippling medical bills.
But I'm having a little trouble figuring out how a few dozen kilobucks worth of GE and Intel stuff is going to do anything to improve their lives.
I say my freedom (in the sense of doing what I want with my body and life) trumps the life of a person who will be pressured into suicide.
Such reasoning (that some people will fall prey to something (like drugs)) is very dangerous to personal liberty.
If that stuff showed up on the 'net, I know I would want it gone. I certainly wouldn't want someone deriving pleasure from it to continue to do so.

Did you even read what you wrote?
I just want to point out it's hardly better if the government gets a cut.
I guess the casino owners who can use that money to stimulate the economy don't mean shit.
So, the money illegal casinos get is all going to be spent on terrorism, child porn and drugs?
Doesn't what you said earlier (no monopoly on police) descend into mob rule?
Is there anything exactly wrong in the posted jpg?

One life versus the suffering of thousands who can't die earlier.
