It Is all about the revenue , tax dollars. I can not believe it is anything but that. If not, then maybe they, the moral people of this country , will ban just about everything including alchol and cigeretts along with the other.

Since I don't gamble on line, banning it won't bother me. I think it should be regulated and taxed like any other gambling done legally. I also think it should be regulated in such a way that only money that has been earned and set aside for that purpose can be use since many of its opponents believe that on line gambling encourage players to go into debt to participate.

I haven't formed any opinion yet, one way or the other. I'm leaning toward regulating online gambling, but not totally banning the whole thing.

Cheers everyone

the senate takes summer break on august 4th so there is only two weeks for them to do something on the internet gambling bill.do you think it will be voted on before then.word is that legislation is crowded and it won't be voted on before then.however senator frist has said they are going to try to make room for it.a lot of ways to look at this.do you think the CEO getting detained hurt our cause
