Mode Note: Come on people. Lets not get into the political aspects of this issue. Two sides to every story. Lets also not inadvertently make it a
personal issue either. Thanks.

And guess where the stud fee tax goes.......see below
Administered by the Kentucky Horse Racing Authority, the fund became effective Jan. 1, 2006 after Fletcher signed an emergency regulation in December
2005 to implement the program for the 2006 racing and breeding seasons. The legislation shifted the sales tax on stud fees to the breeders’ incentive
fund. Before 2005, Kentucky was the only major Thoroughbred breeding center without an incentive fund.
And I think I'm right that when Maktoum pays 10 million for a horse at Keeneland sales he doesn't pay sales tax!!!!!!!!!!!!

And here it is!!!! SEE BELOW And dern sure see nothing political that I have posted other than the legal mumbo-jumbo.
Purchaser claims exemption from Kentucky Sales Tax (Initial One)
1._______ The purchase is made for breeding purposes only; or
2._______ The purchase is made by a non-resident of Kentucky of a horse less than
two (2) years of age;
3._______ The horse purchased is two years old or older, which is not sold for breeding purposes
only, and will be immediately shipped by Keeneland Association, Inc., from Lexington,
Kentucky to the purchaser at an out-of-state point via licensed Interstate Common Carrier
(ICC). It is understood and agreed that such shipment shall be wholly at purchaser’s risk.
A release will be issued to ICC carrier upon receipt of bill of lading. All expenses incurred
by Keeneland in shipping the horse will be invoiced to purchaser and Keeneland shall
retain a lien in the horse to secure all such expenses.

As for country bp, whatever happened to you championing personal responsibility? Isn't that a conservative value? Are you only for govt. protecting
us citizens when you deem necessary? | Well - Sure. But more I want the government not to sponsor an
institution that will injure the population and economy as a whole. Sure Tax dollars come in and then of course w/ that you get some shiny new
buildings or whatever - but guarantee it - much wasted and more coruption. BUT.... again - to get those Tax Dollars - MUCH MORE of the Wealth of KY
will leave the state to the Ownership of the Casinos. So - actually there is a net loss.
Again- if it is only about money - why not allow and tax other ventures??? Prostitution, Herion, Crack - whatever you want - lets go to it.

How much does the sheik pay all of those people that work on his farm? I'm pretty sure he pays tax on the horses that stay here and his farm is here.

Please explain "free ride". KY is known worldwide for horses. We have the biggest share of the best quality horses in the world. Unfortunately other
state bred programs are starting to take away business from KY. KY should have by far the best state bred program in America bar none!! Then we could
grow (and pay more taxes and provide more jobs) instead of sitting around waiting on that idiot williams to do anything. | All of this is well and good - BUT... If the industry can't make it on its own - WHY?
Other states are doing it better? Why? Are we not doing as well as we should?? Shouldn't we compete on the merits?
It goes to - WHY should the Horse industry be the CHOSEN winner in this game? IF we do something like this - shouldn't it be on a completely
competitive basis? I think it should only be in BP satations as it is getting more difficult to compete w/ other stations. We can't compete w/
Krogers and Sams and Walmart on prices. I think providing Fuel to the vehicles of the community is much more imperative than breeding and racing
horses.

Minimum wage would be my guess!
And any smart business person would ship the horse out of state to avoid the tax. I see nothing about how long it has to remain out of KY. before
returning! LOOPHOLE???(See #3)3._______ The horse purchased is two years old or older, which is not sold for breeding purposes
only, and will be immediately shipped by Keeneland Association, Inc., from Lexington,

The reason is simple the other states allow gaming which gives them more money to pay the breeder's bigger purses. We in Ky. are losing one of our
signature industry's to ignorance.

"Gaming" or "Gambling"... what's the difference?
They each sound like a gimmick to take money out of many little pockets and put it into a select few big pockets --all in the name of "sport"..

Where I worked we got a group together and rode a bus over into Indiana to a casino. They gave a ride for a small charge and the casino furnished the
transportation. No chance of getting on the bus right after welfare checks went out. Had to give it a week or so to be able to get a seat.

Maybe, Kentucky is full of Wind Nuts that want to control social behavior of those that are sinful and want to drink and gamble.

Maybe Kentuckians realize spending is out of control and are wanting to see what the state is going to give the citizens in return for all this cash.

YES YES YES YES YES
Government Subsidies ... Corporate Fat Cat Welfare.... need to go.
And if folks want to Gamble... let 'em Gamble.
If the owners put up the money to build... and nobody comes... so be it. I have never seen a Casino where people were being led in at gun point...
forced to gamble.
Heck.. Wheeling pays for my 87 year old mothers bus ticket to come down once a month... with 40 other ole ladies... they have lunch and play bingo
on the bus... then play the nickle slots till their arms give out... have dinner and a nice ride home.. Our Money From Ohio to W VA. Dumb
Hillbillies... I think not. 
How can the Government Promote Gambeling in the Lottery... yet do everything the can to keep Gambeling out of the State. Makes my head want to
explode.

On the casino issue...
We had an article in our local paper that 'Indiana' claimed they will lose $109 million dollars to Ohio casinos. That and people will gamble
regardless. (if they want to)

I'm sure Indiana will want to increase your taxes to help offset for this loss of revenue.

I'm not sure how gambling is any different from any other purely entertainment activity that you can do that costs a lot... hmmmm... boating, anyone?
Lots of people would say it's absurd that we can go out and spend hundreds in fuel for our boats, just to lay on a raft with our friends. But it's
entertainment and we like it. And big, greedy, corporate oil companies benefit from that.
