I think I get what you're saying ... basically - the stuff that makes a difference is the stuff that isn't legal right now anyway and can't be easily detected or detected at all.

When they say....

“we regulators are the only voice in racing for the animals and betting public. It’s time we raise the bar in service to both.”

They certainly aren't doing any favors to the betting public. If they want to do favors for both the betting public and the industry as a whole ... everything starts and ends with lowering takeout in a healthy fashion.

As for them being "the only voice of the animals" .... animals can't talk. The animals are in it to get the vets who medicate them rich - give a whole bunch of people jobs - and entertain fans, bettors, and owners.
