Of course CDI doesn't own the horses but they own the physical plant,track, stalls, grandstand, etc. Walmart doesn't actually manufacture all the products they sell but they own the store, shelves, parking lot, set the prices, etc.
Same difference.
Your analogy is misguided. Wal Mart does own the products it sells. CDI does not. Your insinuation that CDI as a large corporation (they are in reality a small company in Wall Street terms) is somehow allowed the latitude to do as it pleases without playing by the rules is laughable. Businesses that operate in the manner in which they do often wind up in the scrap heap. In a challenging industry during rough economic times goodwill is often as important as squeezing every penny out of the kitty. The Derby will only take them so far...
