A casino is a place where people engage in gaming and gambling activities whose results are not known with an aim of making money and other valuables such as gold. This gambling game is by chance and may result in gaining or losing money and other valuables. Most famous casinos around the world are places of extravagant and reckless spending of cash and other valuables. However, they can also be sources of wealth for those who play their cards well.

French casinos generate total revenue of over USD 3,957 annually. In 2012, the Security Code was enacted to regulate casinos in the sea, climate resorts, and in marine carriers.

Atlantic City, New Jersey

Established in the early 1800s with only lotteries, the industry has currently incorporated online betting, horse racing, off-track betting, amusement gambling and both the social and charity gambling. The Atlantic City-based casino employs more than 33,000 people with close to 30 million gamblers each year and generates more than USD $3,330 annually. The early laws were enacted in the early 1800s. In 1894, prohibitive laws were passed to make gambling illegal though it was legitimized in 1970 when a New Jersey Lottery was commissioned. A referendum conducted in 1976 passed that casinos should be built in the Atlantic City area only. In January 2011, a bill was passed to embrace online wagering when one attains 21 years.

Casino Controversy

The casino industry contributes greatly to the economy through taxation and also promotes tourism. However, opponents of casino gambling argue that the social and economic consequences of gambling far outweigh the revenue. Casinos are mainly built near hotels and other shopping facilities as a marketing strategy and also to offer those visiting a city a variety of option for their entertainment.
