If slots have extra money to dole out, let it be to the communities there originate in.

Why should that money go to only a segment of the public - let if go to everyone.

Screw racing.

I don't agree with this in all cases because a lot of casinos/racinos were built with racetrack permission or on track property. In most cases the racing side was smart enough to negotiate compensation. That's smart business and I don't have a problem with it.

However, the great injustice was that none of this was ever used to lower takeout. The idea that no one ever thought to at least lower exotic takeout at racinos to reasonable levels showed how little anyone cares about the racing customer. It was a great opportunity squandered.
