AMEN
From John Stossel:
In my state, the government tried to put
bookies who take bets on horse races out of business by creating a
state agency to run off-track betting. The New York City Off-Track Betting Corporation,
which has a Governor-appointed board of directors, has been so
incompetently run that it now LOSES $38 billion per year despite its
government-granted monopoly. Taxpayers are now on the hook for over
$228 million.
An activity that was so lucrative to bookies that they risked arrest to pursue it becomes a money-loser when the state tries to do it.
