Thanks Steve. That's about what I figured, but with all this talk of privitization being the only way to continue racing in NJ if the governor doesn't change his mind, I was wondering if the actual collection side for the state would change at all.
It might make a good incentive for a private firm if the skim was reduced so to allow more upside for the investors and possibly expand the field of bidders.
