The
casino and racetrack industries in Texas each wants a monopoly on slot
machines. This feud recently intensified when a horse race advocate denounced the political skullduggery of the "deep pockets" behind "out-of-state casinos."
Apparently this complaint emanated from some orifice other than the horse’s mouth. Racetrack interests spent $7 million on Texas’ last election--or three times what Indian tribes and other casino interests spent. It also turns out that many Texas racetracks are owned by those evil out-of-state casino companies.
