World Gambling News » Mr. Andersons Insight http://www.worldgamblingnews.com Bringing you the very latest news in the gambling world Thu, 16 Oct 2008 19:37:06 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2.1 en Ohio’s Issue 6 - Allowing gambling in the Bible Belt? http://www.worldgamblingnews.com/2008/10/ohios-issue-6-allowing-gambling-in-the-bible-belt/ http://www.worldgamblingnews.com/2008/10/ohios-issue-6-allowing-gambling-in-the-bible-belt/#comments Thu, 16 Oct 2008 19:37:06 +0000 James Anderson http://www.worldgamblingnews.com/2008/10/ohios-issue-6-allowing-gambling-in-the-bible-belt/ Well after years of failed gambling voting in Ohio Issue six this November is the newest to surface.  Issue 6 run by a small time group of Indian Casino promoters is attempting to slip one in there.  They have many loopholes in the proposed amendment to the Ohio Constitution that will allow real casino based gambling once and for all.  They state Millions will go directly to each county of the state evenly and everyone will be happy keeping Ohio’s dollars inside the state but what they do not tell you is this is not forever.  A major loophole in issue 6 is that it states, all casinos in Ohio will have to pay the exact same tax rate.  Does not sound to bad as millions are supposed to flow from just the first casino right?  Looking further, if these boys bring an Indian based casino into Ohio later the effective tax rate for all casinos will be 0 (ZERO)  (NOTHING)!!  as you can not tax a Native American or a business (Casino) run by them.  At least the government did something right for these folks that took care of our land before we stepped in. 

So, as much as I want a casino or two in Ohio, I will be voting NO on issue 6 as I firmly believe a casino will be great for the state, but it must be done correctly or its just a giant vacuum for Ohio’s cash.

 Others handed over form Go Daddy registrar are Cake Poker, and Ultimate Bet Poker along with of course Doyle’s Room.

 If anyone has a domain registered with Go Daddy I suggest moving it ASAP.

 The domain www.goldencasino.com is the latest domain turned over to these idiots, although it still works you can see the whois is going to the commonwealth of Kentucky.  I am simply amazed.

Steve Beshear of Kentucky will get his answer from the judge as he attempts to obtain the ownership of 141 more Online Gambling domain names to The Commonwealth of Kentucky to “protect the people of Kentucky” .  Well he also stated that he really wants to protect the Horse racing industry of Kentucky as well as the land based casinos and lottery mainly but he is also concerned about the people I guess? 

The historic presence of this case is huge, if he succeeds where does it go next?  If he is permitted to get the 141 names (he already has obtained 2 that were no longer in use but on his list) where does it end?  The domain names in question are form licensed operators in different countries, with domain registration legally obtained outside of the United States.  This sounds so amazingly impossible that I feel stupid writing this article but this is happening, happening TODAY, NOW..  well you get the idea.

If this case is not thrown out of court and laughed at by the presiding justice what is next?  Will all adult sites be taken over by a state or church that claims the content is not suitable for people or children in their district?  What about the businesses destroyed by taking away the number one identifier?  Are all news sites next if they report a story that makes the public obtain an opinion that others do not want?

 Its bad enough we are loosing ground to China in many aspects, but we do not need to become China.  This is an attempt at censorship, plain and simple but I bet the complacent public of the United States will just utter the old “well that’s too bad but I am not effected” quote we are all accustomed to at this point.

Steve Beshear in a means to protect the horse racing and lottery monopoly, along with the commonwealth of Kentucky has taken over the ownership of an online gambling web site stating they are breaking the laws of 50 states by offering online gambling.  Not only is Online Gambling not breaking any state laws unless your in the repressed state of Washington, seizing domain names to sensor the Internet is pure Communism.  I hope this causes such a backlash in Kentucky this jackass never sees another day of legislation and turns into a jobless lowlife he is.

Now you say you never heard of the site in question, LuckyPyramidCasino.com but that was one of 150 domain names they want to seize including bodoglife, allslots and others all having a major stake in online gambling world wide.  If the US is permitted to take control of these domains and sensor the American people on how they are to live their lives then I say its past due for a revolution our founding fathers would be proud of.

Here is a list image of the domains to be attacked. (more…)

Getting back to the point, with barney frank presiding over this bill, how hard would it be to slip in an end to the UIGEA as its another must pass bill.  You know my stance on ”slipping” something onto a bill but this would be a double negative making a real positive no?  With Frank’s attempts at passing a bill to eradicate the UIGEA as its a complete joke and Bordon on the banking industry, it seems almost for sure he will add text to regulate gaming online or at least wipe out this stupid addition to the port security act.

 All we can do is hope something decent comes of this fiasco, maybe a moment of silence or a few thousand emails to Frank to let him know this is a good idea!

I am very happy with waiting as I know something IS in fact going on,  I just hope I do not become disappointed in the final results of our bully, nanny, money grabbing system has returned in the past.

Is Tom Brady hurt?  Its hard to tell but by the end of the first quarter we should have the answer!  Is Manning getting some inside information from Payton?  I am a firm believer blood is stronger than sport, and Payton would much rather have New England beaten in the big game than not.  Look for a great by the Giants, also look to Bill to put his plans together to stop them.

I think this will be a very interesting Super Bowl, much better matchup than most people really think.
