Is Pennsylvania’s Gambling Market 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.
Lawmakers view it as a steady source of tax revenue, but operators and players alike feel that the rules are too strict, making the system cumbersome.
The fun sometimes feels buried under paperwork.
The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board closely monitors all activities, which, while intended to be beneficial, is starting to hinder the system.
Since the legalization of online gambling in 2017, the industry has experienced significant growth, often ranking just behind New Jersey in revenue from online slots, table games, and sports betting.
The government collects hundreds of millions of dollars in taxes annually, but upon closer inspection, the industry feels overwhelmed by its own regulations.
