3) WHAT? [by Anonymous Citizen on May 24, 2006]
Why don't you idiots in government just give EVERYONE a tax break that way everyone would benefit from your stupid bills.Tell me why horse racing, or anything having at all to do with horses need any kind of a tax break. I guess I just don't get it anylonger. Fire all government elected officals and start over.
