Prohibition Ii: Good Grief

Wow truth-101, thanks for protecting me from being swindled out of millions. If it weren't for the federal government I'd probably get hoodwinked by every Nigerian prince that wanted to wire me millions. Of course it is in the best interest of these billion dollar companies to have gaping security flaws and to let their employees cheat customers out of their money. I'm sure these companies have no desire for repeat customers or to be going concerns for more than 5 minutes.

Please don't post this drivel and expect anyone to take you seriously. And what makes you think I want or need your protection? I'm not 5 and you're not my parent.

the main issue is not online gambling, you're a fool. the main problem is there is no way to regulate these things clearly, and there is always a chance the player can be swindled out of millions by either fake player programs setup by the company to simulate real players and win instead. this is to protect the american people from fraud, something that is happening quite a lot. there is simply no way to fairly tell if the system is stacked against the player, especially when many online gambling companies are overseas and untouchable by our courts. for all you know, the whole table of poker you're sitting at online is filled with company employee's or programs to simulate players. this is not nonsensical like other prohibitions. the only people I can see fighting for online gambling are the addicted gamblers, and the company's that want to cheat those gamblers.
