Government Gambling Hypocrisy: Bad Odds and No Competition
From StosselTV
Many politicians across America condemn gambling. They crack down on slot machines and want sports betting banned. Yet, there’s one gambling operation they never try to ban: their own!
The politicians’ hypocrisy is disgusting. They should leave us alone. How we spend our money should be up to us!
After 40+ years of reporting, I now understand the importance of limited government and personal freedom

For years, major corporations bragged about their wonderful Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs. They’re good for business and morally correct, they said. So why are they now cutting those programs?
Robby Starbuck says these programs once got a lot of buy-in, because people wanted to be nice! But DEI came to mean much more than just being nice.
Starbuck says what it looked like in practice was “crazy trainings” and “overtly racist hiring practices.” Now lots of people agree with him.
Companies actually take notice when Starbuck tells his many followers about their DEI programs. Often the programs get dropped.
That’s the power of free speech.

Socialism is popular!
Youtube and TikTok stars say socialism “maximizes freedom… increases life-expectancy,” and “improves home-ownership.” It’s so absurd!
I asked my producer, Kristin Tokarev, to investigate their claims. Her video debunks their propaganda.
Influencers now rack up millions of views claiming socialism works better than capitalism. Here’s some of what they get terribly wrong!
