    <p>You have to give props to Frank, he is really pushing this forward. And to be honest we need to be protected as consumers, as we are if we area at a casino or even at starbucks buying coffee...</p>
    <p>Also, with this push it will also possibly create more jobs as more brick and mortar casinos would possibly create online versions of their casinos, which will also expose more people to online 'gambling'</p>
