Biden is the winner.. The Money knows

A major internet gambling site Sportsbet had paid out on Bets for Biden as the winner of the Presidential Race. I flagged this several days ago, saying the bookies would know better than the pollsters who was going to win. Biden Paid $1.20 for the win. (Wager $1 to get $1.20 back)馃樂

@whowasthatmaskedman The numbers don't lie.

@SW-User And the house always wins.. When I saw all the bookies going with Biden that was good enough for me馃樂

@whowasthatmaskedman Right? It's not hard to tell who has no stake, other than to collect; the bookies! Almost everyone else is voting emotionally, but they are important cogs in the works.

@SW-User Exactly.A bookie is the sharp end of the insurance industry. You make a bet you are going to crash your car and pay them to take the bet. They set a price and bet you wont.

@whowasthatmaskedman Yep. And they win to the tune of millions, and even get their services enacted as laws. There's enough money for your crash and their wealth, as long as you are willing to play shitty odds for a little peace of mind.
