Why is this important?

1. Because as a standalone it would help identify those politians that poker players could try to vote out of office.

2. By the deceptive practice it aids politians in obsfucating issues to help divide the American people and make it harder for the people to realize how the Government intrudes on individual freedoms.

3. This is only one issue of many that has eroded your individual rights over your lifetime.

Yes, but none of that matters. The system works the way it works and can't be changed. We have to work the system, not spout off "its aint right", because no one cares that it isn't right.

We have to put an effective lobby in place, it has to be the player's lobby, not the sites.

We need a leader. Of course, none of the management here is going to step up so we better start looking elsewhere.

The solution is simple, as players, we go to the Congress, hat in hand, and ask them to regulate the industry for our protection. Dang, this ain't rocket science. I thought you guys were expert thinkers.

The management here, as far as I can tell, make their living as authors, publishers, consultants to b&m casinos, and b&m poker players. How does that make them the voice of online poker?
