ok, i’ll admit, that exaggeration got me a laugh.

but anyway,

• not everyone is lucky enough to earn 10,000 “stalins” a month
• it’s unlikely people would bet very little on something, when they could bet more in hopes of getting more returns
• most people keep gambling away even after losing money, to the point where they start gambling away their clothes.

though, i don’t believe socialist countries would allow gambling to be run in the first place.
