What about online Gambling and the USA in the future?
In a recent press release, a Senator on the Finance Committee has proposed a way to pay for the new healthcare reform and legalize online casino gambling. An amendment would allow tax revenues, generated through online casino gambling, to pay for health care reform. Co-incidentally, a representative of the Congress has introduced a bill that would legalize online casino gambling for US players, called "The Internet Gambling Regulation and Tax Enforcement Act".
Applicable individual taxes, corporate taxes, and license fees on regulated internet casino gambling activities could be collected. It is estimated, that this new legislation would raise approximately US-$63 billion in revenue over the next 10 years. No doubt, if this bill passes, players from all of the US would not only be able to gamble legally, but would contribute to the healthcare reform effort currently pending.
In May some Online Casino news reported about new developments in so problematic online gambling legislation. The legislation "will enable Americans to bet online and put an end to an inappropriate interference with their personal freedom." - U.S. Representative Barney Frank said in Washington. Looks like all Online Casinos will come back to the US market in the future again.
Is online gambling in the USA now legal?
Yes, you can gamble online - as long as you are not playing from one of the states with restrictions.
