Does anyone else think that the
large pile of taxpayer's money being sent to the horse-racing industry (which exists purely to suck money from the gullible into the pockets of the already rich and slightly clever) is just a little bit completely unfair?
Couldn't they support their poor starving selves with some of the countless billions they've raked in over the years, without having to resort to government handouts from the rest of us that work hard to pay taxes? I know not everyone agrees with me, but my view is that gambling is a tax on those who suck at maths, and as such it's already a scam.
Oh, and the government should stop running
TAB while they're at it - that just encourages people to think it's all normal.
There's nothing like a Monday morning rant.
