I think, if we're to go along with this line of thought, that they should tax online gambling first, and see how that goes.

Even an extremely reasonable tax on that would increase revenue a boat load and enable congress to cut taxes fairly (i.e. for every American, including those working smarter and harder than most) across the board.
