Why is everyone picking on me?

"Gambling is a serious addiction that undermines the family, dashes dreams, and frays the fabric of society," said Frist in a statement after the bill passed in the Senate. "Congress has grappled with this issue for 10 years, and during that time we've watched this shadow industry explode. For me as majority leader, the bottom line is simple: Internet gambling is illegal. Although we can't monitor every online gambler or regulate offshore gambling, we can police the financial institutions that disregard our laws."

Also included in the bill is language that indicates that Internet service providers could be required to block access and remove links to Internet gambling Web sites.


And so the American Empire has ended. Yesterday were were the OLDEST democracy and the longest one to ever survive. I guess all good things must end.
