But keep ripping up ballots to show your displeasure while not doing a single thing that actually requires personal sacrifice. Hypocrite.
Look dude, I'm a smart person, and I was a good poker player. The actions of the US government cost me, and every other online poker player in the US, money. I'm sure their actions effected the EV of online players in other countries, also. If it weren't for the UIGEA, game profitability wouldn't have declined the way it did, and I could have possibly made a lot of money. I hypothesize that at least a couple posters in this very politics forum would have been millionaires if it weren't for the US government kinking, and then effectively destroying the online poker market in the US.
I tried to make a living playing online poker, and the government ****ed me out of it. You can suck my dick if you think I'm in the wrong by getting loans to go to ****ing college.
