Online gambling bill hits snags in Congress!!
 
Still might get through somehow but for now it has hit a speedbump.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Efforts to win U.S. congressional passage of a bill to ban most forms of Internet gambling by tacking it onto a must-pass bill hit a roadblock on Tuesday, but aides said Republican backers were exploring other ways to make it law.

The problem is us casinos might be wanting to get into this and a law would stop that.Casinos pay lots of taxes.

If its free then it isn't gambling. Gambling is when you have something to lose. :2 cents:

They need to legalize it and tax it.. They would make a lot more money that way and still keep it out of the neighborhoods...

The witch hunt in the US already has a lot of the gaming industry worried.
