I recognize that it is a working strategy. Selling of drugs also turns men into millinaires. Men have an instinctive, biological reaction to these sorts of things. But the fact that it seems pleasurable does not mean that there is no damage being inflicted upon society. Violent video games are the ones that are selling best. That does not make them a good idea. My community is now full of gambling establishments. Their enormous popularity does not mean that they are not inflicting great social harm. There are lots of really bad things that are well received by lots of people. Probably, CTF is a better place to discuss it. I've said what I had to say.
