I feel your pain. I have Tea Party darling Todd Akin for my rep. He goes on and on about freedom, but that stops when it comes to what I do in my basement.

The fight will never be over even if we get licensing and regulation. There will always be a fight to keep taxes low and protect our game. We will need to continue to stand up for our rights long after any bill passes. And I'm confident we can do so successfully.

I was talking with regards to the rake not raping the games like in France. I guess we won't really know until the cash games are up and running, so perhaps I'm way off base here.

Regardless, like TE says, France and Italy players had the same voice American players had when the UIGEA got shoved up our asses, none. That's why they got the raw deal they got. We have a strong voice now, which is part of why a ****ty state bill for players hasn't passed. It'll also be why amendments in our favor will be made before HR2267 passes, if at all.
