Pennsylvania's Gambling Market: Is it Too Regulated?
Pennsylvania has become one of the biggest gambling states in the country, with the industry generating billions of dollars for the economy each year.
The state legalized online gambling in 2017, and since then, business has been booming, with Pennsylvania often ranking just behind New Jersey in revenue from online slots, table games, and sports betting.
However, despite the success, the industry feels weighed down by its own rules, with the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board keeping a close eye on everything, making the system creak.
The rules are so strict that the fun sometimes feels buried under paperwork.
Lawmakers see the industry as a steady source of tax revenue, collecting hundreds of millions of dollars in taxes every year, but operators and players feel that the strict regulations are stifling the industry.
Author's summary: Pennsylvania's gambling market is booming but feels restricted by regulations.
