the whole post not just commenting about the bit you choose too..online gaming might very well be ok for you but for 100s of 1000s of people it is not and i am positive each and every single member on here who has played casinos has A> spent more than they should and B> spent more time online gaming than they should have so government MUST take action because i re-iterate NOT all online gaming companies are legit and the rogues need weeded out and fast. i mean cmon all you have to do is look at the rogues section on here that should be enough for anyone with half a brain to realise something must be done before it goes too far.
All of this would mean, ahem, REGULATION!
And I am glad to have you around to tell me what to do, love ya.
The government is doing this on behalf of physically established businesses on U.S. soil. IF the government did not want people to lose their money, or protect them from such a vice as gambling; Vegas would not exist in its current form, all gambling boats would be gone, no lotteries, and no dog or horse racing.
Please, can you now reflect on your inner self and see reason?
Again, the government does NOT think gambling should be illegal. They are not trying to protect individuals. But, I strongly believe it should be regulated, to protect citizens from rogues. This would only pertain to U.S. based online casinos though, as they would have no way to keep people from putting their money in offshore casinos.
Also, I believe people that share the attitude that government mandated outlaw of gaming is warranted could move to Protectmeopia (formerly known as Washington State)
