Anyone in this country want $8-$42 Billion?

A new tax revenue analysis announced by Representative Jim McDermott (D-WA) estimates that regulating Internet gambling would generate between $8.7 billion to $42.8 billion in federal revenues over its first ten years. The findings of the analysis, prepared by PricewaterhouseCoopers, were provided to all Members of Congress by McDermott earlier this week.

Ha. gotta do it that way. I just found out how hard it is to get a congressman on the phone, lol. The staff was very nice trying to deflect me without angering me though, lol.
