Online Gambling Can Bolster the US Economy

Prior to the passage of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act, the online gambling industry boasted that it was a billion dollar industry with 80 percent or more of bets originating in the United States. A billion dollars that can be used to bolster the US economy at a time when it appears we are nose diving into a recession (assuming there is not one already).

I do believe that online gambling would have a positive effect on our economy. I stated once before that I thought the government could figure out how to regulate it and collect the necessary taxes. Now would be a good time to figure it all out.

Yes it could probably do just that but how long must we wait? It seems that something should have transpired in the 15 months since that bill was passed.

I am confused about something If we can go to vegas and land based casinos to gamble and its all right why then can we not gamble on line it makes no sense to me at all couldn't the government use the same taxing of the money as they do for land based casinos I mean really is there that much of a difference other than the fact that most of the gambling sites are out of the country I wonder when they invented the cyber space and computers did they not have a broad mind to think that people would not use it to do other things .They should have put a warning label on the computers when we bought them saying we could only access what they wanted us to and then they wonder why the american people think the government talks out both sides of their faces

I could not have said that better myself Beangel40. I think the whole thing in a nut shell is that there are so many sites out of country that the US can't tax. but you don't here of the other countries complaining about those missed tax dollars in there pockets.
