Since you asked I want the PPA to allow me to play on-line poker without having to worry about a lot of idiotic hurdles; be it paying 5% to deposit, worrying about Foreign account disclosures, worrying about if my bank will cash my withdraw check with out closing my account or fining me, I'd like to see in the future someone other than Kawanee Game Commission which is located in Canada, I would love it if the PPA at some point was strong enough to attempt changing the tax treatment of poker winning.

PPA wants the same thing as far as I can see. They've clearly advocated both the Wexler bill and IGREA, both of which eliminate the need for e-wallets and the rest. As for tax law, there is PPA action now on the recent changes on taxation of tournament winnings. We'll see where that leads.
