Our prediction market luminaries signed Bob’s petition —and the losers are InTrade, TradeSports and BetFair.

I have re-read the American Enterprise Institute’s proposals to legalize real-money prediction markets in the United States of America.

-

AEI advise the CFTC not to allow for-profit companies (like InTrade, TradeSports and BetFair) to operate socially valuable prediction markets —in a legal way, in the US.

-

It’s a shame that our prediction market luminaries signed that piece of ****.

-

Long live Steve Levitt and Koleman Strumpf.

-

And long live the prediction markets on sports… —and on anything else.

-

UPDATE: In the for-profit vs not-for profit debate, our prediction market luminaries, doctored by Bob, are on the wrong side of the issue.
