Isn't it kind of crazy that states are just now cracking down on Bovada (founded in 2011)? Imagine there was a well-known website that allowed you to order cocaine that had been around for over a decade. The government definitely knows about it, but doesn't do anything. And then one day the government legalizes and taxes cocaine and, lo and behold, decides to crack down on this super illegal website. Isn't it government's job to prevent these kinds of things, and not just prevent them when they're the ones losing out on the tax revenue?
