Why should online gambling be legal in the US?

Question

I am writing a report on why online gambling should be legal. I would like some direction to go in. Does anyone have any thoughts. Links would be great.

Answer 1

Profit motive, Capitalism, and self-improvement all are totally American values, and all are involved with gambling one way or another. The adrenaline behind chance, feeds a mighty Country's aspirations to further greatness. At the cost of cutting mellow people out of the system. So the Welfare Safety Net makes Capitalism Legal under Natural Law. I "bet" you weren't expecting this kind of answer. Regards, Larry.

Answer 2

I think online gambling shoudl be legal only if the operating casino is based in the united states.

Gambling is the third largest industry in the world and if we allowed online gambling, money from out country would pour out at tremendous rates to casinos based in other countries, and it wouldnt do the country any good at all

Answer 3

well i think on-line gambling should only be legal if some of the profit gained from people losing went to a charity or the community of a certain town where it originated. It's like what they do with casinos of certain places.

Answer 4

With adequate controls in place to prevent underage players, etc., there's no good reason why something a person can do in person shouldn't be available online.
