Today's topic:  A bill is being introduced in Congress to legalize online gambling.  Rep. Barney Frank wants to repeal the current ban which went into effect during the Bush administration.  It could raise billions in revenue, but at what cost?

 

At what cost?  Humm let's see.  Fraud-Addiction-Bankrupcy, who really cares since it's up to the gambler to do whatever they want with their money.

 

Government interferance seems to be at an all time high and quite frankly I'm am sick of the government getting into all our personal business.  Everyday there is more and more news about some form of government telling us what we can or can't do. From firing CEO's to changing tax codes. To uh, cutting our taxes, yeah right.  I just found out the tax cut I got on my pension will be added to my income next year.  Which means I will have to pay back that tax cut, WHAT A JOKE!!!  Take back your damn tax cut Obama, I don't need the extra stress of coming up with more money to send you, and stop gambling with my money.  I claim ZERO all year, pay into a 401K and I still owe money every year.  Oh, I'm so happy with this administration, can't you just tell?  Ok, I'm done venting......for now.

 

Hopefully no one I know will read this.
