The World Trade Organisation (WTO) on Friday confirmed its ruling the United States had done nothing to abide by an earlier verdict that labelled some U.S. Internet gambling restrictions as illegal.
“This is a smashing success for Antigua in every possible way. The report will sweep away any lingering doubt that Antigua has obtained a clear and convincing win over the United States in this matter,” said John W. Ashe, Antigua’s ambassador to the WTO. There was no immediate reaction from Washington.
It’s expected that the US isn’t going to comply with this ruling.
Really I don’t get the problem with Internet Gambling. If people want to gamble they’re going to find a gamble. I think the opposition to internet gambling is all of the Casino’s, Indian Tribes and State Governments that reap an unconscionable profit from Casinos, Lotteries and Racing Tracks. They don’t want the competition.
