How about reading once in a while instead of shooting your mouth off. That money is non tax dollars. It is not a handout. It would be no different then the Governor taking pension reserves. Maybe you need to stay silent.
Take that money and use it wisely. The greed and corruption in racing is gigantic in this State and the horsepeople refuse to help themselves. #shutdownPAracing
the other way to look at this is this. the casino $ was divided up by law when they were allowed to open. purses get a small percent of revenue. the state is getting a bigger share. state is never going to give up a nickle of their share yet they want the purse money on top of their own.
all the critiques of the way racing is run in PA makes me wonder ? where in the heck is the PA Racing Comm ? They're responsible for oversight. Shouldn't the PA Comm advise this gov on the benefits to the state as regards employing thousands at a time when work should be cherished not diminished
and if he shuts down racing where do the 20,000 people who earn a living from racing go , oh yeah onto the government payroll, sure that's a good idea, they just get the handout in a different way instead of working for it and helping the overall economy... that by the way is called the multiplier effect...economic s 101
