Should a new system of investment gambling be started that bets on actual earnings of companies?

skahhh: Should a new system of investment gambling be started that bets on actual earnings of companies?
This would be a new stock market gambling game where the closer you get to guessing the actual earnings of a company, no actual business people can participate, just amateur people? Let the other fools mess with the manipulated market system. Bet your 401k on a new system that rewards you for paying attention to actual earnings!

I can think of a number of good reasons for not starting such a system, not the least of which is that earnings can be manipulated too easily.
