    My position is simple.

    You are bad with thoughts.

    Your thoughts.

    Are abbreviated.

    And they assume that you.

    Are right.

    And others are wrong.

    Once you tell me what the hell "this" means to you instead of linking to a conversation
    where
    you
    say
    O
    M
    G
    How obvious
    Is
    THIS
    OMG
    PPL R STUPID

    TY
    FOR AGREEING WITH ME!
    OMG
    PPL ARE SO STUPID RITE?

    I will listen to you.

    My support for the bill is simple. If I want my buddy to play online poker it means I have to explain, with difficulty, the legality of the game. I would much prefer every John, Jake and Sam know online poker is legal and awesome and be able to deposit with nothing but a *click* *click*.

    I sent an email to the main sponsor of the bill (Mr. Frank) asking him to illuminate the specifics of personal poker player's profit taxes, I'm waiting patiently for his reply.

    And to the specifics of: "this bill will increase rake" I don't understand exactly why that is, so I can't comment on it further. Please expand upon that.

    Honestly, I think that when a bill finally passes into law, it will be pretty good, but the main reason for any goodness comes from PPA, 2p2, the sites, and possibly the BnM lobby pushing for those positive factors. There has been a ton of awful policy in proposed legislation, some have been beaten back, and our position should not be anti-law but pro-good law

    Also, anybody who thinks we're not going to get a new online gambling law within a few years is living in a fantasy world. Lobbying is getting heavy and much of the establishment wants it anyways. It WILL happen, we just have to make sure it happens right.
