Different companies own it but the government gets a big cut of the profits.

All gambling is rigorously controlled by government. It reaps a lot of tax dollars from it. In a lot of states the state actually runs most if not all of the scratch off tickets. Either way, the government either owns or controls, like owning, just about every type of gabling there is. Some Indian reservations are not government land per say so they have been able to have their own casinos where normally gabling is not otherwise legal.

No, the people who make the company own it. (Not the government, in most cases).
