“There doesn’t appear to be a constitutional issues here”
I disagree.
Why should some people be able to profit from gambling in the US (Las Vegas casinos and sportsbooks for example), while other people cannot engage in the activity?
IMO, that’s unconstitutional and unequal treatment under the law.
Whether it takes place online or land base is really of no substance.
But if you want to argue that, why should some people be able to profit from online wagering (on horses for example) while others cannot in other forms?
Again, imo, it’s a joke.
Lastly, why should some people be able to advertise casinos (vegas, atlantic city, foxwoods, whatever) while other people cannot?
Again, imo that’s unconstitutional and unequal treatment under the law.
