Gambling Tax Could Raise Two Billion, Senate Panel Says
Washington reports Chairman George and the Senate Finance Committee discussed a gambling tax that could yield up to 2 billion dollars yearly though members doubt the figure due to legality issues across states. House estimates 400 million annually for commercialized gambling and approved two revenue-loss provisions totaling about 224 million. One provision excludes gains on home sales if reinvested in a new home within 12 months, saving about 112 million. The other expands depletion rules to sand and stone products, doubling coal depletion to five percent, saving about 67 million annually.
