Not at all, but since you can't think for yourself I figured you'd blindly follow whatever he has to say....That is my last response to you in this thread.

I have no point? Have you read this thread? Your status as board douchebag is firmly in place but seriously, your "I'm smarter than you mantra" is old and tiresome.

You have done nothing but spout a tagline about takeout going up and starving the beast then tried to make a stupid comparison to taxation being a deterrent. Meanwhile, I've tried to tell you that from a business perspective the takeout increase is a viable last ditch effort for an entity that is failing slowly but surely.

So hey, if you have a second, break down where each wagering dollar in CA goes and let me know where you can trim from.

Last ditch effort, huh?

Sort of like in a 'sending pictures of your cock to a girl who isn't interested in going out with you' kind of way.

So from a business perspective, you believe the takeout increase will be a detrimental move? I'll be more than happy to post the daily handle figures for SA each day compared to the same period in 2009-2010. That's basically what this boils down to, but feel free to insert any pertinent cock joke.

Nope. Nice try. There will be a bounce from going back to dirt that has nothing to do with the takeout point.

And supporting a takeout increase because you know your product is about to become more attractive to your customers is a bad business move how?

You're going from an already draconian level - to a little higher level.

Detrimental move? Maybe not in the extreme short-term - but in the long term, yes.

I believe in the early 20th century takeout was around 10% or less.

It's sort of a two-fold issue. SA has enough helping them externally to have a good meet (dirt and everything that comes with it). That's why my opinion is what it is regarding SA itself.

However, once Hollywood rolls around it becomes a problem. The only thing worse than betting on a series of 5-7 horse fields with huge favorites and a 20.68% take would be doing the same thing with a 22.68% take.

This doesn't really change the accuracy of the opinion that decreased takeout will drive up business or increase stability.

Proof is in the pudding. All I know is you don't raise taxes during a depression and you don't raise takeout during a depression. And I realize they didn't on WPS but it doesn't matter....Plus why anyone is supporting 4 and 5 horse fields is beyond me. The inner has never looked better.
