How's about also listing the profitable ones and also speaking in terms of principles of materiality when you look at the losses at smaller tracks vs impact of closures. Idiot.

"impact of closure" such a hollow argument. You could use that as an excuse to prop up most failing businesses...

Many economics texts and studies have done the math: Subsidizing cost the taxpayer infinitely more...If subsidizing was such a net positive, then it would make sense to subsidize with infinity dollars.

Agreed.  So tired of the "impact of closure" argument.  Treat it like any other business and let only the strong survive, which would make the product so much less watered down, so much better and might give the industry the boost it needs to start climbing the mountain again.  Christ, drivers might actually have to be competitive again instead of beer buddies.  Such simple business principles but the simpletons in harness racing can't figure it out because of their incessant entitlement.  The government didn't throw a bunch of money at Sears and Target and so many other long gone business when they went bad because of poor product, lack of attendance and so on.

Ugh, don't get me started...

You speak as if those affected will never earn again. Life goes on.
