Re: Press release: 60 minutes doing report on internet gambling
This would be good for winning poker players. But to compare online poker to buying lottery tickets and casino gambling is a mistake. It's not the same and it's not even close.
When someone has to drive 4 hours to a casino and drops 100's or even 1000's of dollars on games, they're going to feel [censored] and probably not come back for a long time.
But when people have the access to wager thousands of dollars at the click of a button without feeling the pain of actually handing someone out cash, it's completely different and much more dangerous.
Sure the sharks would feast but this would be very dangerous to our society and economy.
Be careful what you wish for.
