My question is. The money collected from online gambling where will it go? The states make it go to education but where online gambling will go?

Because if it goes into something else and not into education (or whatever worthy cause your state has it) the government maybe worry that the online gambling (online lotteries) will steal customers from the state lottery thus losing revenue...

I am upset enough now to try to kill the pick 3 it being the source of so much money to the states.

IMHO, gambling is a narcotic.

No matter what the government does, folks who want to gamble, and folks looking to make some easy money, will find a way to do it.

It's probably easy for banks to identify gambling accounts now, but it won't be for long.

I'm not an expert on the technical aspects of the internt, but I suspect that the only way to interrupt on-line gambling is to block the gambling sites, which means censorship to the nth degree.

My choice would have been 'leave it the way it is', so the only choice I can vote on is 'not sure'.

I'm kinda tired of new taxes, I mean, we get a paycheck, I lose 30% to taxes, I have 70% left, and THAT gets taxed when I buy something - anything.

I'd rather see us pull out of Iraq and save the billion a day we spend there.

The sad thing is the winnings would already be subject to Federal income tax (states may very). Politiciians are just more interested in corruption than the opinions of their constituents.

your right the government doesn't care what the people want only what they can make off of the deal. When we started America we started it because we were getting taxed above and beyond what was supposedly legitimate. 200 some odd yrs later and we are still being taxed to death.

no matter what the people want the gov. will do what it want's to. If they feel like blocking it they will go all out to do it. if they decide to allow it they will profit from it . as far as the govs concerned they... [ More ]

If I had a choice, I would just go with taxing it I guess.

A lil depressing to think about Mike, everythings going to be fine. It would be a waste of time and energy to go through with something like this.
