very interesting
i think the key question is how and when does this extra wagering filter down to the increase in purses

Not for profit doesnt necessarily equate to no corruption. Imho the opposite is true.  These operations rife with neopotism and  misuse of public funding.

Nyc rivals chicago for most corrupt cities in usa. Watching number of scandals involving a remarkable number of high profile legislators in ny state over last three decades i gradually came to realize that creation of nfp was the current go to scheme to siphon public funds for high level political scum.

I give a fair amount but only to local charities. Just look at how blm money went whoosh into personal enhancement of top brass. Or to be balanced since unbridled  greed  is an equal opportunity vice the embezzement allegations bret favre is enmeshed in the great state of mississipi.  These are norm not unique.
