Description

The series revealed retail business owners and video machine owners probably make an annual profit somewhere between $400 million and $1.3 billion. Bar owners, convenience store owners asnd "gray machine" owners pay taxes on a small percentage of these profits. The state could be losing up to $100 million a year or more, simply because no sales tax is collected. The series also revealed close political ties between the illegal gray machine industry and state legislators.
