If they can't make a go of it as a subsidized monopoly, it's time to throw in the towel. If the track owners try "to charge an arm and a leg for rent", Maryland should take the horse racing subsidies out of the package. The $100 million subsidy IS "an arm and a leg" worth of rent. Casino gambling shouldn't be coming to Maryland unless <A HREF="http://maximizeformarylanders.blogspot.com/" REL="nofollow">the benefits are maximized for all Marylanders.</A>Keithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09651948495890349460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23411101.post-41148597884550625522007-09-25T22:14:00.000-04:002007-09-25T22:14:00.000-04:00Keep in mind that when Frank Stronach first purcha...Keep in mind that when Frank Stronach first purchased the Maryland tracks, he said, would we take slots? yes, but we are not a gaming company. Now he will get the opportunity to prove it. What company wouldn't want $100 million pumped into its monopoly industry? The racing commission has repeatedly said, give the industry a fighting chance to stand on its own with a level playing field and it will beat down delaware and west virginia (Pa? Hmm). That's what magna is going to get. The maryland tracks, with a little thing called the preakness, already make money, even against insurmountable odds. If Magna gripes too much, they're going to blow it. They should take this ball, any ball, and run with it. We're going to find out what kind of company this is in a hurry if the o'malley plan passes. Let's hope they don't tear down Laurel and Pimlico and put up another GP. One monstrosity is enough.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
