Gr,
Obama wants to raise capital gains to 28%, not 20. I googled it also and found about 4 diffrent mainstream media sources that listed it as 28% Hillary clinton said she wanted to raise it to 20%. Which is absolutely moronic, as the government wont take in any more money, it will take in less. This has all played out before.

Just read on the NYRA site that they now are going with FREE ADMISSION and parking till Sunday and reduced food prices. Think they are reacting to fuel prices and their diminishing attendance like other recreational areas are doing. Just heard on CNBC this AM that resorts/amusements parks are giving away similar perks to try to keep attendance levels up this summer.

BTW: As a person who goes many days to Bel, have you seen or read of any drop in attendance so far in the spring meet? I have not gone yet this spring to see for myself. Thanks.

I've been a lot, but not on any Saturdays, and the weather has been cold and/or rainy on too many days.

Should be nice this weekend so hopefully the crowds will be OK.
