It is pretty sad that the money will supposedly be used to help education, i.e. the lower and middle classes, while at the same time that is exactly where the slots money is coming from in the first place.
In the end, racing is going to have to stand on its own, like it or not. In PA, I doubt they can. I'm not even sure if I hope I'm wrong to be honest. I do know we don't need two almost year round tracks and another that gives out insane purses for poor racing a few months a year.
