to quote the belly button holing his flame attack<<I may well be wrong, but think I am not...NSW sold its TAB betting shops years ago>> this is about qld matie..

<<Part of that deal..was an amount of returns..has to go back to its birth place,..racing.>>special deal to special mates[at mates rates?]

HOW COME YOUR NOT REVEALING AMMOUNTS>..talking numbers...100 million...just to the horse racing industry?...what about the other sporting induustries...noting half our news has been subverted to sports/rorts reporting

<<That was how it was..when it was publicly owned..that remains how it is now.>>yes you intrenched powerfull elites have certainly made a next for yourselves,,,nothing ever changes eh matie

<<And ask..we all consider..some truly questionable claims..being made on other subjects>>...by the special/intrests..that run everything from unions to sports clubs..to govt's two party SYSTEM...and so much more

how could we have missed it..for so long..half the news is sports...and most of politics..is about giving sports funding..to get team lotalty/...

Your off ya head. You'd have us living like arabs or something worse.
There has got to be something else behind your non funding ambitions.
Churches, for example. Now i find that a real waste of money. There's $ for overseas, but you begrudge funding our own kind. You would have society collapse, this 2009 not 1830.
To read something sinister in sports funding is 'socialism by stealth' as someone else would say.

desmond..quote..<<There has got to be something else..behind your non funding ambitions.Churches, for example.>>>lol

I agree, grants paid to racing clubs is just money down the drain.
Anything that comes back will no way cover the various costs.
I'll bet (sic) they don't pay rates on their land either.
What would the normal rates be for Randwick race course ?
The mind boggles !

Come om Bazz you are brighter than that.
Clearly you commit the sin against your self of not reading others posts.
Launching in with comment without understanding.
The money, have no doubt, is not just a grant.
Australians Gamble, we always have and will.
Just as money made from lottery tickets will soon not all go to things like the Opera house, an intended beneficiary of one lottery.
Racing generates far more than is returned to it.
TAB once publicly owned was sold, like lotto, and other forms of gambling a percentage of money is always returned to government and in the case of racing a smaller part is returned, without that money none would be generated, racing would die.
This clearly, is a case of a tree producing much fruit, then being drip fed to keep it alive.
While insult OUG are your habit, you are as lost as any poster who ever came here, reality never shines its light on you.
But some who post often have got caught up in your fly paper.
This thread is a fraud, untrue, unseeing and nothing less.
I expect that from you but Bazz justify your post bloke.
