What do you think the gambling laws are in international waters? I have a friend who is planning on taking a cruise to the caribbean some time soon. With my disapproval he went to get a fake id because on cruises to the caribbean the gambling age is 18. Anyways so when he goes on this cruise he is planning to use the fake id card to show the security guards in the casino that he is in fact 18 years old. He doesn't loook like he is because he is only 16 and I have been trying to convince him not to do this. I was wondering what you guys think the consequences would be if he were to get caught. In my opinion it is especially a bad idea because he would have to spend the rest of the week on this ship (so long as he doesn't get kicked off) with the same security guards, so it is not like he could just walk away and forget about it. Anyways please just let me know what you think will happen, even if you think that nothing will happen. I am just nervous for him and want to know what you guys think. Thanks in advance!

LAME!
How long do you think we can have a free and democratic society if we insist on maintaining totalitarian systems in our companies? We must have freedom for individuals and organizations to grow and to realize their potentials.

Anarchists don't support anyone's bills. Also, ironic you'd be calling us totalitarian when you advocate abolishing beliefs you disagree with.

you could still play cards and not have the motive of making money..it could be for the sake of fun and games..The funny thing is the reason why we have gambling in the first place is because of capitalism and this illusion of the American dream...I'm sure if we were placed in a circumstance were money was not values then there will be no need to gamble..it will lose its values..

trust me you have a long way to go to abolish anarchism.
