It?s all legal until you get caught- 2005-10-27

Quite often today’s modern citizen is governed by his own set of rules and subjective moral conduct. When trying to establish whether if an incident or action is liable to be sanctioned a personal judgment call comes into play.

A very good example of this is jaywalking. Following the penal code, this type of conduct is prohibited, nonetheless in the public eye this is such a petty misconduct that no one really cares about it.

This exact same logic to a lesser extent is being applied in states like Hawaii, Illinois, Louisiana, Michigan, South Dakota and Oregon were online gambling has been outlawed. Indeed, thousands of dollars are being spent everyday by residents of these regions from the comfort of their houses.

While the authorities are doing very little to enforce the law, deeming internet gambling as “a victimless crime”, federal and state police are cracking down heavily on secret, underground casinos and other styles of illicit wagering.

With figures expected to reach US$15 billion this year, gambling sites and internet casino aficionados will contribute once more to making this activity one of the most lucrative web based venture.
