Plenty of market share – and Potawatomi knows it

Multiple economic studies show the Southeast Wisconsin gaming market is significantly underserved – in other words, there’s plenty of room for two casinos to successfully compete and thrive.

Looks like the Potawatomi know it, too.

Check out this recent interview from The Business Journal in Milwaukee, where the senior project executive for Potawatomi’s just-open, quarter-billion-dollar off-reservation casino expansion lets it slip that the shiny new addition was built with yet ANOTHER expansion in mind.

In the meantime, the Potawatomi have spent millions to kill potential competition from the proposed Kenosha casino.

It’s not that the market can’t handle more gaming – Potawatomi wouldn’t be looking at yet another Milwaukee expansion if the market were saturated.

No, the market’s plenty big enough. But Potawatomi wants special government privileges to eliminate competition before it starts and keep a monopoly for itself – even if it costs the state billions of dollars in new revenue and thousands of jobs.
