Online poker under attack
The Internet Gambling Prohibition Act proposes to make it illegal for Americans to use the Internet for gambling and would authorize law enforcement officials to stop credit card payments and other forms of electronic payments.
The funny thing is, online gaming sites are begging to be legalized and regulated. A better approach would be to allow them to set up shop in the U.S., contribute to the U.S. economy, be regulated by U.S. markets, and be subject to U.S. courts.
Resently, Howard Lederer, Chris Ferguson and Greg Raymer traveled to Washington, DC to lobby against the idea of banning internet poker. To read the complete story and help stop this ridiculous attack of our personal freedoms vist the Poker Players Alliance website. Be sure to support their efforts and sign up.
