The scary thing about this is the Delagate from Laurel that says that horseracing should be more "family-orientated" and that other forms of entertainment dont depend on gambling. I would have hoped with her being from Laurel she would understand that GAMBLING actually takes place at her hometown track. The biggest problem that our industry faces is that so many who have the power to help or destroy us have zero clue about what actually goes on at the track, how it derives it's revenue, and the economic impact that it has.
much like a hundred or so other things that are brought before the ledge. doesn't it give you a warm fuzzy feeling knowing that these are the people controlling OUR tax payer dollars?
