Question

Standardize the argument New Jersey legalized sports betting in 2018 and in November alone, made $3230.7 million. This success in New Jersey has made other states feel pressure to ease their restrictions on sports betting and allow it around the country. The move is based on the argument that since the state of New Jersey could make over three million dollars in one month, so could the other 49 states in the U.S. including Georgia.

Answer 1

The argument seems logical but...

Step-by-step explanation:

In population there is not much difference between New Jersey (9 million) and Georgia (10 million) but I guess in average income there is, and quite a big one too.

We also have to take into account that a state that legalizes sports betting will attract many people in the beginning (because of the novelty) and, more to the point, that probably a lot of these people making sports bets are not residents of New Jersey.

A more ethical argument would be to prove that legalizing sports bets is indeed an effective way to stop the ilegal sports betting.
