Una posta di oltre centotrenta miliardi di euro all’anno: tanto vale il mercato italiano dei giochi d’azzardo, tra i più estesi e in crescita a livello mondiale. Il suo sviluppo è dovuto soprattutto alla progressiva espansione dell’offerta di giochi negli ultimi trent’anni, favorita da scelte politiche orientate a incrementare il prelievo fiscale a beneficio del bilancio dello Stato.
