you better not try that at Yonkers

Spot on Brown Jug.

The racetracks such as Yonkers,Meadowlands,Belmont,
Pocono, Monticello, Buffalo, Batavia,Vernon,and the Canada
tracks have been charged trillions over the decades by
the Federal, State and City Governments.

Those funds helped build schools, hospitals,Fire Departments,
funded the Police and other infrastructure.

The casinos on the other hand have come in over the last
decade or so..

Why shouldnt they contribute to the well being of the tracks?

The tracks were the only gambling game in town until the
casinos came along (Las Vegas excluded).

There shouldnot be any decoupling allowed.

 IF you are a Casino owner you must have a track
and a certain % of revenue should go toward the purses.

The casinos are are a johnny come lately.

The tracks offer a foundation to acrigculture across
the US and have provided hundreds of thousands of jobs
over the last 75 -125 years.

irrelevant  question
states that understand it ensure there is a partnership and a split of funding
remember that casinos are a drain on economic activity, the casinos rake in millions which is withdrawn from the economy for ever and have no economic downstream in the area other than the few people who work there making minimum wage
racetracks and horses have a huge positive beneficial  economic impact as the racing itself is a very labor intensive industry providing many economic benefits downstream which i have posted before
please limit response from people who own at least 100% of a horse(s)
not interested in comments from people with no skin in the game
you know who you are

I get that buggy racing folks aren't typically Rhodes scholars...but wow.
