Default Re: Proposed Comments to submit concerning UIGEA Regulations

There have only been some 44 comments posted so far (it looks like they post them in a batch once a week). Early on there were a few heartfelt comments that expressed their dislike of UIGEA. But I believe what we need to have more of is expressing dissatisfaction with the regulations, not attacking the legislation that was already enacted.

Some Greyhound racing organization posted their comments. And now some individual Greyhound operators are posting. The poker players are behind the curve.

The regulations are a serious problem. You can see that the Greyound folks are concerned that the banks will destroy their businesses, even though no one should be thinking that the legislation meant to do that. They are concerned about how overblocking is penalty free while failure to block is risky for the banks.

But the Greyhound folks just want themselves specifically mentioned in the regs. We should be pressing it as having a broad impact and trying to get the overblocking danger entirely removed - plus every other concern we have with the regs.
