Frank to introduce bill.....

[mr_hanky]

why did partygaming just drop so much?

[Berge20]

I missed out on a lot of the personal attacks and trolling that snowballed out of control in this thread.

Please keep things on topic. Don't troll and don't start going back-n-forth over some "grievance" you have against another poster.

"Why do you keep calling us "self-righteous"?"

bc you continuously, insult me, put me words in my mouth and mistate what i actually said IMHO.

"You keep saying we're wasting our time writing. Do you have proof of this? Any data? If not, it seems you could have at least stated that your opinions were just that....your opinions."

this should have been implicit IMHO.

" While it's an uphill struggle, we get more from fighting back than we do from doing nothing (as you propose)."

see, you still dont get it, i never proposed anything. i made a seemingly IMHO innocuous remark about our chances and you decided to jump on your high horse and deride me for treason against the high and mighty gambling stalwarts.

"As you chose to disparage our effort"

perhaps you missed this post: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showth...page=0&vc=1 im not disparaging anything.

"Why do you even post at Legislation? "

notice i didnt post here until yall started bashing me. for some reason i like to fight with idiots on the internet. its gives pleasure in a perverse fashion like banging my head into the wall.

Good timing Victor.

The bill mentions that those receiving a license would be subject to US jurisdiction and required to pay taxes. I'm not so sure Party is coming back. And I'm wondering what happens to Stars and Full Tilt if this passes.

Aw come on. Do you really think that these companies would purposefully avoid the largest market on earth because of taxes? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Party (Sexton) has said in the past they would gladly pay taxes to be fully accepted in the US.

I highly doubt Party and Co. would avoid us because of taxes. That's the business equivalent of not picking up a 100 dollar bill because it's locked in a newspaper box and will cost you fifty cents to get to.

[joeker]

These companies will happily pay taxes to be legally allowed in the US market

Sports bettors will not be happy with this bill.

Under the proposed legislation, all licensed Internet gambling operators would be prohibited from accepting bets or wagers on sports leagues or associations that have opted-out.
