Excerpt:
No matter which definition first comes to mind for you when you hear the word "contraction," chances are there will be some pain involved. But when the pain subsides, you've given birth to something that you can embrace for years to come.

Of all of racing's self-inflicted problems to be tackled (drug policies, safety, public perception, viability as a gambling game, etc.) which ones are best addressed by the extinctions of owners, breeders and industry workers?
If a "contraction" was the answer then so be it. But from my point of view this sport is in desperate need of righting its ship with the public and with gamblers. Not just getting a smaller boat to drive into the rocks.
