This whole issue is rapidly becoming a major economic story for the US. Why has this not been part of the political discussion, specifically the recent debates?

because the american public as a whole is a retard who can't feed themselves

Lately I've been classifying US citizens into two groups.

Those that have a hole in their heads,

and,

those that have their head in a hole.....

Who is going to collect ? The Belgian military ?

You don't really get it do you? Nobody has to collect anything. If US do not comply the end will be that any US patent or any copyrighted material can be 'pirated' legally. No US exports, no US economy. The days when the US industry drove the world economy has been over for decades, and the former eastern block and china have only started turning the wheels. Remember when the USD was close to the GBP? How is it these days? How is the US trade deficit and the budget deficit? US is relying heavily on the rest of the world to keep the wheels turning.

If US isolates itself from the rest of the world it will be 1929 over again, except the rest of the world won't really feel the effect.

So to answer your question, the Andorran Navy will do just nicely.

You know nothing about economics, obviously.

Funny enough it was all the "smart money" that was jumping from high buildings almost exactly 78 years ago. The average guy's only concern was getting landed on by the "smart money"!

Only macro and micro economics at university level, a quite bit beyond the 101 stuff you get in college.

So I guess that you teach post grad economics? Or hold a doctorate in economics? Or?

OK, so suppose this happens and the US is forced back into WTO, etc; what is the outcome of all this? Does this mean that US players will no longer be restricted from currently banned sites? If so, I'm assuming the US will put regulations in place. Is another possible outcome that the US provides regulated sites only? I'm trying to see the bigger picture.

Yeah it seems to get tricky at that point. How is the Fed going to make the States allow online gambling?

The Us is a bunch f gangstas. We tell peole they cant have nukes but we have em. We invade countries for no reason. So what someone says we owe 1 billion. Do u think we will pay. We will laugh at the face of the world and they will still ask us for protection. Damn I hate repupblicans!

The bigger picture is the US will at some point have US based on-line poker sites.

Either they will be forced to accept off-shore sites, or someone will force them to accept a new or existing US site. Or some combination of the the three.

The $365 Billion dollar question is how big a bet will it take for the US gov't to fold.....
