I think you are trying to say socialism sucks.

The long and short of it is. Without a promise to help out "education" they get no slots.

However, promising to do good with the new tax revenue is not the same as actually doing good with it. Here in the People's Republic of Illinois. They promised to put the money from the State lottery to education. It does go to education. They just stopped taking the money form the general fund. Net gain zero.

That's sorta the way the United Way does their bit. I can ask that all the money I would donate go to the Boy Scouts and NOT to Planned Parenthood. So they take the amount I gave to the Boy Scouts and subtract other money that was going to them.. and then give that money to Planned Parenthood.

I think that getting slots will help Buelah. The purses will go up, the quality of the races will go up and the Twins can get even more attention.
