All you clowns talk about is why aren't they "giving" you more. You actually got that part right. Nothing earned. You even say the people who saved racetracks are only driven by money, yet you don't hesitate to take the welfare and drink the Kool-Aid. Only time any of you talk is here because you are scared shitless knowing what will happen if you get caught. They yank your free ride. When you walk in most paddocks it's no different than walking into a social services office. Same thing, prove me wrong. ngc3

Good evening ladies and gentleman, welcome to Harness Racing in Florida!
(https://iili.io/JsaUaef.md.png)
Replace “harness racing jobs” with “auto sector jobs” and you’ll get the same thing. Governments are sometimes forced to subsidize many industries to keep them afloat… nothing new here other than someone with a vendetta.
Harness racing provides underskilled laboor with a living wage through these subsidies, as it does the auto sector. Harness racing provides indirectly spinoffs throughout the community through feed sales, equipment sales, etc. many of the people involved would otherwise be unemployable unfortunately, as often would those in the other subsidized industries. Unfortunately, the outputs are not always equally useful in society. Nevertheless, it provides sustenance, and a sense of purpose to those involved. Society is full of government measures to support the populace. Picking on those involved reveals your lack of humanity. Consider it welfare or otherwise, but it does serve its purpose.

Just curious, do you consider every dollar that comes into a track's financials (regardless of where it shows up, what line item, etc.)---that doesn't come from the track's operating "revenue---as some type of subsidy?
Documented or undocumented, each of those people need to be fed. Working for it is far better than eating at a charity or stealing to survive. A diversion to a second argument still reveals your darker side. I’m not in favor of dead horses and kill pens either, but when preferences come into play I side with human welfare over animal welfare any day. Jmho.
Sure, the lowest being on track handle and in house revenue from live patrons. The rest is welfare. Thank you for asking. Take away the subsidies and tell me what you're racing for. I'll wait.
Ok… let’s stop producing cars that are creating pollution and killing our planet. Let’s shut down farms that produce animal related goods and by products because animals die needlessly and there are bad actors in those industries too… we’ll retrain everybody who had no real skills at age 50+ to be carpenters and welders. 90% of the people involved I. Harness racing love the horses … unfortunately you’re to blinded by the vendetta and prefer only to see and focus on the other 10%.
Blinded by the vendetta against an industry… evil has overcome your soul.
So what??? Tell us something new. Does everone cry when Amazon gets millions of dollars in tax brakes to build a warehouse and creates worse and lower paying job. One thing good about harness racing the jobs are hands on. Not only that they create far more revenue for the state in taxes and jobs created then Amazon and others per dollars. Did you cry when harness racing gave the states 25 percent of millions in the golden age? Obviously there is rampant cheating issue but welfare is for people not working, at last check my harness trainers are mostly the hardest working people I know.
Take away subsidies there would be no ballet, opera, many museums etc. Maybe take away subsidies for stadiums etc, yet we only bitch about harness racing and constantly call it welfare.
Also lots of that money that flows through is taxed, and there is something called income tax that most states have. So the amount spent as a dollar amount costs the states far less. that is basic economics. And yes harness racing would be out of business without slot money but so would most dance and theater groups be too.
Are people shoving needles and tubes into those dancers then having the public bet on them? I don't remember reading that the federal government indicted anyone on Broadway for selling non detectable drugs used on actors that caused their hearts to fail.

You're right. Against the industry. Not the sport. Your industry is a loss and criminal. The sport is dying because you have done nothing to change the industry. Thanks for playing.

My favorite is:
“The subsidies have insulated this industry from changing and, frankly, have done as much to create its demise as anything,” Ward said. “They refuse to adapt to the new reality and they don’t operate on the same business model – the same competitive business model – that most businesses do. I can’t understand why the business community tolerates this.”
here's a thought for mike and the other economic majors on the siteNewsMax Fool
1. lets add up all the money the government ( yes that's your tax dollars) is giving to house and feed illegals that flood into the country, 90% of them who don't and will never work but will rape,steal,kill
others
Definition of Welfare:
Sitting, rotting in a single room accomodation by yourself.
No money besides the bread crumbs assistance gives you.
Calling people out, all while being 1000x worse off than any of those being called out.
No one takes you serious or wants anything to do with you, a blight on mankind.
I don't care where the money comes fromExactly what everyone on welfare says. They don't care where the money they take comes from. It comes from others supporting your loser fucking asses. Congrats. You must be proud. ngc3
as long as racing can continue racing it is not coming out of your pocket because your one broke useless cock sucker.
FACTS: Harness Racing is an "industry" where lower middle class uneducated individuals who can never succeed in the real world or acquire and earn anything on their own that they themselves have worked for can pretend they are a success believing that playing with horses and loading them with drugs to win races makes them somebody. Cleaning stalls, harnessing a horse, bathing them, feeding them isn't work. It takes less knowledge than anyone stocking shelves at Walmart. It's a "job" where those with low self esteem feel like they are needed by someone and they contribute to society. Fact. If the free ride ends tomorrow and harness racing disappears NOBODY outside harness racing will care or notice. Only those who truly deserve the money being tossed in the trash to support a dead and abusive industry. These are facts. Deal with it. https://www.endhorseracingsubsidies.com/
harness racing people are just like carnies. im sure there are plentyof whirly wheels or fry stands that need help. they can travel the country. stop giving these small tracks free money. there should only be a few tracks in operation.

For those that are not blinded by stupidity or bias, this is actually a very solid opinion/statement.
When the money is gone so will racing then all you losers that think your horsemen will be happy.
You are living proof of what I am talking about. It YOU'RE not YOUR. You uneducated wheelbarrow pushing nitwit.
It's...proofread before you talk down to people! tmbz1Big difference between a typo and not having a fucking clue. Can't talk any further down than the combined IQ of this bunch. ngc3

Mike do you have a job where you make money in any way why do you keep knocking horse racing if you don't like it any more just move on and shut the fuck up.
I agree with you in the respect that the scum bag drug trainers and owners who support it are ruining the sport! Or have possibly ruined it for good. But why insult the people making a living as grooms or jogging? You love horses, you know stalls have to be cleaned and horses bathed and looked after. Those aren’t the people ruining the industry.

Perhaps you meant Billy Faucher who was also an American politician as well as a successful horse trainer. He served as a member for the Cheshire 3rd district of the New Hampshire House of Representatives. Think before you talk my boy you're making ass out of yourself again!
