Ur correct about this shop imho. Absolutely useless. I wouldnt quite agree all ny st gvt a toilet. Quite a bit is though. Especially corrupt is city politicians. Shameful.

I wonder where newspaper got lead. 2 likely possiblities. Either staff squawking or leaked by governors office. Imo this matters, the later suggests some more house cleaning might be on the way the former more a reactionary move by governors office.

Im not holding out any hope myself. My opinion, gvt doesnt give a rats ass about harness racing and just wants its cut of slot $. There is an optic issue though when horses are harmed and that provokes public outcry and gvt reaction.

The writer, Emily Munson has been a watchdog of the entire gaming industry, specifically, horse racing. She did a very good job on a series that exposed to the public, just how absurd and out of date many of the programs in support of horse racing are.
