U.S. gaming is often viewed as an entertainment business, but its success is ultimately driven by policy. In this episode of Harpinion, former Michigan State Representative and current Fanatics Betting & Gaming executive Brandt Iden shares how legislation, taxation, and regulation shape the industry's future. We discuss why states increasingly rely on gaming revenue, the evolving relationship between Tribal nations and commercial operators, the risks posed by unregulated markets, and how Michigan became a model for regulated gaming across the U.S. A conversation on the politics, economics, and policy decisions that continue to define one of the world's fastest-growing gaming markets.

Modern regulatory policy has created significant friction between state compliance and operational reality. Drawing on nearly two decades of leadership at Caesars and Entain, Alex Limesand explains the "60/5 Revenue Rule" and why excessive bureaucracy acts as a silent subsidy for unregulated offshore competitors. Alex Limesand examines the necessity of balancing institutional oversight with high-value player retention.
