2. If country club memberships and entertainmenmt expenses are corrupt, then every corporatation in America is corrupt.


Umm Steve? Its an FN Non Profit corp. with millions tax liabilities and crys the blues that it needs capital. It's not someones personnel nickel that they invested, took capital risk and are taking a shot to avoid using pre tax dollars.. Big difference IMO... BTW perhaps your boys took you to play golf? How did you play?

"Also how is the success at Saratoga not a result of NYRA? As I recall that track was struggling for years before NYRA managed to make it a Racing Destination. I assume this had nothing to do with the advertising and promotion performed by Schwartz's son in-laws firm, it was purely coincidence and timing."

Hacker I think Saratoga's success is much more to do with Whitney and friends as it is NYRA. Without certain folks making SPA a fashionable 60 day retreat it might have become Vernon Downs.. That might be a bit of a stretch
