    And here I thought it was all about the prediction. Wasn’t it supposed to be real-time news proliferation by watching for “whistleblowers” betting on certain outcomes? Would they really just lie to us?

        A word of advice to anyone, this one isn’t happening unless he dies (which isn’t that unlikely). If the midterms go well, he’ll be gone, but not that soon.

    “They could be your neighbor, a friend, a family member,” the Democrat from Massachusetts wrote. “And people are betting on whether or not they’ll be saved.”

    I wonder if this person complained about the bets on missile strikes and such
