Economic hardship can be a powerful trigger, creating conditions that tip societies towards significant, sometimes transformative, changes. This happens through a confluence of factors: Economic adversity is a powerful force that can either lead to societal breakdown or spark innovation and reform.

The rapid expansion of legalized sports betting has been shadowed by a deeply concerning rise in the harassment of athletes by individuals whose betting outcomes are tied to their performances.

Additionally, I've learned that the Supreme Court also sided with DOGE in a sep...
