why do the politicians hate on poker so much?

It seems the whole "regulation" thing is not happening fast enough. I would have though Vegas would have been first but NJ I guess is the only State to step it up?

the US government hates anything they don't have their hands in. They want to tax the poker sites so they can get their cut and get richer. I am so sick of the US government. I want to put ALL the politicians in one building in DC and let it fall down on them and start over again. They are all useless.

I do not know why politicians are so against poker considering a lot of play in their free time. I would love for it to have a better name and be regulated in the united states of America.

They really don't care one way or the other about poker, online or otherwise. They are trying to please the most vocal of their constituents, many of whom believe they must be the moral gatekeepers of us lesser beings. We can try to counter that with our own voices, but there will always be fewer poker players than there are people who like to feel superior because they have one god or another telling them what to say.
