If Monmouth remains a viable racing facility for more than the next 5 to 7 years, I'll be surprised.
Is it something in the water that causes such ineptitude across the board?
Does anything in that state function properly?

Yes, the tolls and the tax collector!
Regarding horse racing, what do you suggest to solve the problem? Murphy pretty much gutted the budget. I got an email from our local high school district saying funding was cut for a service organization- a highly regarded one- within the high school. So it isn't a surprise that he proposed cutting the subsidy. Monmouth faces an uphill climb with every other nearby track is subsidized, in some cases heavily so, by other forms of gambling.
