This is not a congress. You are not a tax paying citizen.
Unfortunately while there were plenty of legitimate people running casinos, for every one of them there were several people abusing the system. We can't single certain people out and say they are the only ones allowed to run casinos.

Congress is not the only place where specific rules are placed so that there is no room for imagination and people know specifically what actions they are allowed to take. There are a million examples I could give from the real world, but how about one a little closer to home. When I launch the EQ Titanium client, the first thing I see is a EULA. This EULA is not overly vague. It is very specific about the rules regarding how you may use the software. I know you know these rules very well as you must stay within them to keep the server from being shut down due to violating this agreement. If they had written the EULA in an overly vague manner, P99 might not even exist. Or you might have put in a lot of work to create it and get it going, only to have it shut down because some new guy at SOE decided to interpret it differently. In fact, without specific rules, you would have not known how to structure the server in order to stay legal. And now you're handing down rules for your server that are so vague that nobody will know if they are breaking them or not. Do you see the disconnect here?
