Popis: In the past fifty years, gambling opportunities across the United States have steadily increased. The legalization and regulation of gambling can provide a state with a means to increase state revenues without increasing state taxes, and also may provide an economic boost to a region. The issue of gambling within a state is not, however, without controversy. Some forms of gambling are permitted in a given state while others are not. Many states are willing to expand gambling opportunities in order to increase the resulting state revenues, while others are resistant to these types of changes to their gambling laws.
