In his weekly column, Nelson Motta addressed the topic “Liberation of the Game” this week, and addressed interesting topics to the O Globo reader.

In the American city of Las Vegas, considered the gambling capital on the planet, casinos are highly supervised, first by the industry itself, so as not to have problems with the IRS, or by the FBI due to possible fraud or money laundering.

This is the standard operation of all casinos in the United States, including in indigenous areas, where they contribute to improving the situation of the tribes. Therefore, the possibility of using an American casino for this purpose is minimal.

Therefore, this is the weakest argument to stop the legalization of gambling in Brazil, it is enough that the inspection is as severe as in the United States.

So why do regulated, inspected casinos, which generate hundreds of direct and indirect jobs and pay millions in tax rates, tend to be more controversial? After all, people with addictions, who gamble excessively and lose, do not need casinos to continue their problems, but specialized help.

At least in casinos, part of the sector’s budget becomes taxes and labor. Irresponsible gamblers who do not have the money also do not need to enter the casinos to do so.

They play on the poker tables, stock exchange, interest, in online casinos. Nowadays, it is possible to play from anywhere on any platform or modality desired over the internet.

Legalization of gambling can generate up to R $ 50 billion per year in taxes alone

At a time when governments around the world are looking for new sources of revenue and the Federal Government is trying to fund a minimum income program, without raising or creating taxes, a project on the liberation of gambling in Brazil has arisen in Congress again.

The forecast is that the legalization of the gambling industry could result in up to 50 billion reais per year in taxes for the coffers of the Federal Government, states and municipalities affected considerably by the pandemic.

The “lobby” has even replaced the term “games of chance” with “games of fortune”. In fact, the situation has never been more favorable.
