Casinos Provide Jobs

It is really easy for opponents of the land and online casino gambling industry to point to all of the flaws in the industry – the problem gamblers and increasing rates of debt and the such with addictive gamblers. There are issues, there is no one saying that widespread gambling is the complete solution to every problem. But, it is true that the land casinos are providing some valuable jobs in the recessive US economy and are even continuing to fund state budgets. The tax revenue that comes from the land casinos in the US is a really huge positive for the industry. State governments are actually considering expansions in land gambling because of the huge revenue potential.

Some really unexpected US states have either just revamped the gambling laws or are looking to pass new regulations and legislation that would allow for a bit more land gambling and betting in the state as a way to provide more tax revenue coming into the state coffers. This may seem like an unwise stop-gap to some, but already the US states that have legalized land gambling benefit from the $5.66 billion that the land casinos and betting venues pumped back into the US market.

Additionally, although the land casinos were not immune to the recession (Las Vegas venues were forced to layoff a lot of employees over the past few months), the land gambling industry in the United State is a major employer. There are hundreds of thousands of employees involved in some part of the US land gambling industry, even if it’s an affiliated sector.
