Default Re: Can someone explain what the PPA wants? and why

[ QUOTE ]
Who do we expect to pay for representing and protecting the interests and rights of online poker players? Individual players can sign up and become a paying member, but who, other than online poker sites, are going to invest the big money that might be required for political and legal activities to protect online poker? So why shouldn't they and the media that they advertise be the majority of the PPA board of directors. The board TE does have one online player not affiliated with a site.
I would be much more concerned if the board had a lot of B&M casino reps. Then I would wonder if they represented or cared about the interests of online poker players. But the board of directors of the PPA consists of almost entirely individuals that profit from or play online poker. So why is this not good for online poker players?
