If jocks want the benefits of being employees, then they should be employees. If they want to be private contractors, then they have to pay their own bills. What you think of the guys in the exec offices has nothing to do with this. And for the record, NYRA jocks and backside employees get far more taken out of owner accounts to pay for insurance, pensions, and other benefits than any other track in the country, along with a higher flat rate for rides.

You are. The contractor factors in their costs to the price charged to the customer. The customer just doesn't see it.
