Among the college-aged, sports betting and gambling has become largely normalized. The Rutgers study found that a third of those aged 18 to 24 were now gambling in some form online—four times as many as when the center last surveyed the state’s population in 2017—and 19 percent were at “high risk for problem gambling.” The NCAA study found more than a quarter of college-aged students had placed a sports bet using a mobile app or website.

A Constitution of Convenience
--"A Massive Fraud of this type and magnitude allows for the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution." This is from former president Trump.
--New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham issued a "public health emergency order" that purportedly suspends the right to bear arms in Albuquerque and surrounding Bernalillo County. When a reporter asked Grisham whether her order was consistent with her oath to uphold the Constitution, she reiterated that "no constitutional right, in my view, including my oath, is intended to be absolute."
So both parties publicly state that the Constitution is an impediment to some government direction and actions that some unnamed group knows and can translate. Neither party believes in foundational national concepts.
This is why the shutdown was so easy. The Constitution has little representation in public debate. And no party affiliation. Constitutionalists will become a cult, recognizing each other with a knowing look or a secret handshake. And government will, initially, look like bumper cars until some willing strong man mercifully grabs the reins.
