Congressmen Jim McDermott has released analysis that shows regulating Internet gambling would generate between $8.7 billion to $42.8 billion in federal revenues over its first ten years. That is a lot of money the government could recoup that is currently going offshore, since millions of Americans continue to gamble online in an unregulated, unprotected environment.

Here is a link to an AP story on the subject and a letter sent by McDermott to all Members of Congress:
