New Jersey Faces the Double-Edged Sword of Online Sports Betting

Reported about 1 month ago

New Jersey enjoys substantial revenue from online sports betting, yet there are growing concerns about gambling addiction and its effects on Atlantic City's casinos reliant on in-person gambling. A recent legislative hearing revealed a divide between the economic benefits brought by online betting and the alarming rise in problem gambling, with more than 6% of New Jersey adults affected. The state has witnessed an increase in calls for gambling support, particularly from young adults, prompting discussions about the need for stronger protections and responsible gaming measures.
