All forms of entertainment are considered useless by some, and there are millions upon millions of people who responsibly participate in gambling. See fantasy sports, March Madness bracket pools, and the vast majority of casino customers as examples.

It is already heavily regulated (which I think makes sense), and the regulators are the ones enabling this recent expansion because they want the tax revenue.

And I say this as someone who very, very rarely gambles outside of fantasy sports.
