It won?t pass certainly not in the form that it is in now. IMO the tax aspect would be great for the industry. As someone else mentioned it would legitimize the business model, and the cost would just be passed along to the end consumer. If you look at any state that has legalized gambling in the last 10 years, each of those states got addicted to that gambling revenue like a whore on crack, and now can?t live without it. It also makes obscenity prosecutions very tough if the Federal Government is you business partner. For all of these reasons the Christian Right will never let it happen.
As to the restrictions on sexually explicit content, that is coming down the pike regardless if it happens in this bill or another one. I would recommend getting use to driving sales with soft core (non-sexually explicit content) so it doesn?t come as a shock when it does happen.
