Shouldn't the whole game be operated on riverboats in the Hudson?

I mean, at the New York Stock Exchange there should at least be an all you can eat buffet ... a Goldman Sachs Horshoe all you can steal buffet!

1. I agree, although they see themselves as quite apart from "actual" gamblers
although gambling is exactly what they are doing, and statistics will back me up on that statement. I don't go to that part of town very often and when I do, am often reminded of what self-inflated thankless douchebags so many of those guys can be.
