Default Re: Rep Steven Cohen from Tenn goes off

IMO, the most important part of this meeting was the introduction of the issues with the WTO that this current UIEGA presents.

Andrew Woods, moderator of the GPSTS conference at Harvard Law this past weekend, brought up the fact that 10+% of Antigua's GDP (Gross Domestic Product) came from online gambling. To deny this and other countries this market, defies the free trade agreement that comes with being a member of the WTO, which the US is.

That fact alone, is enough to overturn the current legislation.
