Default Re: Is poker an ethical way to make a living?

As an extreme example, you can be a libertarian and still think that if a person finds a cure for cancer, that would be better for society than if he had played poker instead.

You wouldn't want the state to force him to develop a cure for cancer, but you would probably consider it a problem if he had a chance to do that, but missed it.

I don't see that as a problem. A disappointment, sure, but definitely not a problem.
