TRIBAL AND COMMERCIAL CASINOS IN THE MIDWESTERN UNITED STATES: EFFECT ON COUNTY UNEMPLOYMENT A Thesis Submitted In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Designation University Honors Amber Irlmeier University of Northern Iowa December 2014 Abstract The subject of casinos is constantly surrounded by debate. The proponents of casinos frequently say that casinos bring jobs, and therefore, they will reduce the unemployment rate. This study quantitatively analyzes this claim. Furthermore, previous research looked at either tribal or commercial casinos. This study looks at both tribal and commercial casinos so a comparison can be made between the impacts of the two types of casinos. The sample analyzed is a set of commercial and tribal casinos in eight Midwestern states. The findings are that a commercial casino entering a county is significantly negatively correlated with the unemployment rate, and a tribal casino entering a county is significantly positively correlated with the unemployment rate.

  • Challenges Facing Indiana's Commercial Gaming Industry
    F MARKET ASSESSMENT: Challenges Facing Indiana’s Commercial Gaming Industry, including Planned Indian Casino in South Bend Prepared for the Casino Association of Indiana December 9, 2016 Executive Summary The Casino Association of Indiana, which represents 11 of the state’s 13 casinos,1 retained Spectrum Gaming Group to independently (a) assess the status of, and outlook for, Indiana’s commercial gaming industry; (b) analyze the impact that the planned Four Winds Casino Resort South Bend being developed by the Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Indians would have on the commercial casino industry; and (c) examine what can, or should, be done to ensure that Indiana’s commercial casino industry – which has been an important part of the state’s economy for more than two decades – thrives and sustains its considerable economic and fiscal benefits to the state. Two points are foundational to our analysis: 1. Indiana’s casinos are no longer in a startup phase. The gaming industry is mature, and mature industries cannot be expected to operate efficiently – nor can they be expected to fully operate in the public interest – with rules that might have made sense for an emerging industry but which are stifling and counter-productive to the goals and needs of today and tomorrow. 2. Rules and requirements that need to be addressed and updated should include all gaming-related taxes, including the tax on promotional spending (i.e., free play), as well as overall gaming taxes. Key Challenges Indiana’s casino industry is mired in the doldrums, in which the status quo is serving neither the industry nor the State well.
