Travis,
Let's start with a basic premise upon which casinos are built........People who gamble in the long run lose. Yes, in the short run people do win that is why they continue to gamble.

Personally I don't care whether the government allows on line gaming or not. As you well know, illegal gaming far exceeds its legal counterpart. Government cannot regulate morals. To make anything illegal simply increases the demand for the product or service.

No I don't support legalizing drugs but gambling - who cares?
