anyone think this will actually make a difference? I'm really not knowledgable on politcs etc. but wouldnt this extra tax revenue be great for the government right now if they were to tax online poker? I mean I realize its not a huge revenue, but its still something.
Yes
Where else can the gov. gain new revenue?
For one small sector it's a lot of untapped possible tax money.
If the idea to legalize poker is framed as a new way to generate revenue in these tough economic times than the chances of something getting passed are greatly increased.
