Apparently the state is willing to invest they atre paying this guy 1.5 a year.. What's the big deal about an additional 28.5 mil to support an industry that employees folks and yields tax dollars both directly and indirectly? 30 mil isnt a lot of money for an industry!

Have you slept through the last 9 years? Show me one sign that a politician (not a lame duck like Patterson) will be willing to commit to a longterm deal to 'give' NYRA money? It isnt as though NYRA would want to do this on a year to year basis. I'm sure a $150 million 'giveaway' with the state billions in the hole will go over well.
