Health Care Hurting Passage

Tony Cabot is a lawyer from Las Vegas who has gained a name in the international gambling industry as an expert on the online casinos and the US internet gambling industry in particular. Cabot came out with a unique perspective on Barney Frank’s bill that indicates that it’s not very likely that any sort of federal level changes are going to occur within the gambling industry at this point because of outside factors rather than for lack of support. A lot of the online casino gambling industry felt a leap of hope that the Frank’s internet gambling bill would pass through as a result of the need for more money into the federal budget to support health care initiatives. That hope was short-lived though as objections rose toward linking the two controversial industries. Now, it could just be the health care reform that defeats the online gambling bill for a different reason.

Cabot notes that the Democrats right now are very focused on pushing through the new and controversial health care reform and this is certainly a priority on the Democrat platform right now. The online casino gambling industry is a secondary concern for the Democrats and one that just doesn’t rate as high on the totem pole according to Cabot. Frank’s legislation for the regulation and licensing of online casinos is unlikely to pass largely because of a timing issue. The Democrats do not want to give Republicans any issues with which to dilute the focus and success of the health care debates.

The online casinos are a hotbed of debate and issue for the Republicans and this would just cause more controversy at a time when the health care reform bills are taking priority. Many Republicans are very vocal against Frank’s bill and would take any opportunity to rally against the Democratic cause.
