No competition due to the heat wave!  Many other tracks closed!

Only game in town?

That’s most likely a quote directly from the Meadows racetrack. And yes, they are thriving. Setting records is a good thing for the sport. Unfortunately, most of you naysayers can’t recognize a good thing when you see one.

Simple. If the industry is thriving then all the subsidies and state welfare can be pulled. Right?  tmbz1

There were just 4 tracks racing today in the country cause of the heat.

Maybe welfare isn't needed if harness racing only races on days when everything else cancels

Marijuana doesn't manufacture thousands of horses a year to be used to profit then sent down the slaughter pipeline. Harness Racing doesn't subsidize pharmaceutical companies? Even the illegal.ones!  ngc3

No.

Legally it's like any other drug for medicinal purposes, regulated.  Marijuana is not legal for recreational purposes federally, not decriminalized, just intentionally off the DEA radar for the minor league weight, large black market, cartels, they're still on the radar.

The gov has done psychedelic experiments for warfare, interrogation, mind and out of body experiences, those are search projects, some classified.
