  1. Re:Stupid Logic on Internet Gambling CEO Arrested by FBI · · Score: 1

    It is stupid logic. I know that most of you out there have experienced the idea of "if I can't have it I want it more scenario". This will only cause more problems. Rather than figuring out an amicable solution, we are going to shut it down. Carruthers wants to work with the US to develop a strategy to make online gambling legal and fair in both the eyes of the clients and the government by which we are dictated, I mean we voted in. This in turn will regulate who is legit and who is not. Causing the so called "terrorists" that are funded through americans gambling online(Stated by Representative Leach in an email debate between him and Carruthers found here>>>http://online.wsj.com/public/article/SB1143 75000762012631-14PeRy_IGy_Ax75SChM_gejdynE_2007040 3.html?mod=tff_main_tff_top)to be cut off. Carruthers seems to be a stand up guy and will disclose any info pertaining to the finances of his business.

    Wasn't there an act put in place due to this problem not too long ago? SOX act? Enron? Why cant this be the same for this compnay who wants to do business in the US. make them, no no no, allow them the chance to do business legitimately. If you think about it it is very hypocritical. I for one think if mandates are in place to keep somone from gambling underage and having a help system in place for problem gmablers, online gambling could only help our economy.

    Its the same story with prohibition and the criminalization of marijuanna. "If we can't figure out a way to effectively and efficiently make money off of the problem, we should ban it", B S!. I think that if the people in government did their job to appease their constituents we wouldnt have this issue. I think more than anything this is just a distraction to other problems we face in our world. Distract Americans. I like that, maybe Ill make a Tshirt that says "Distracted American"

    My two cents. Sorry about the ranting.
