ralis Posted February 10, 2015 Sheldon Adelson owner of the Sands Corporation is against online gaming, but makes billions with land based casinos. Complete hypocrisy. http://www.democraticunderground.com/1017244167 "Republican mega-donor Sheldon Adelson is making a renewed push to ban online gambling after it failed last year. Reps. Jason Chaffetz, a Utah Republican, and Tulsi Gabbard, a Hawaii Democrat, reintroduced an Adelson-backed bill Wednesday, provoking another battle within the deep-pocketed gaming community pitting Adelson’s Las Vegas Sands against MGM Resorts and Caesars Entertainment, which hope to make money online. Speaking to a handful of reporters in his Washington office, Chaffetz said that he supported the bill out of concern that online gambling companies are targeting children. He is considering calling a hearing on the matter in the House Oversight and Government Reform committee, which he now chairs." 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
