You hit the nail squarely on the head.  Trouble is, this law was made by 
people who didn't have useless horses to deal with, only their emotions, and 
it isn't likely to be repealed any time soon.

Subject: [RC] Dealing with the over supply



Fostering a culture in which it is considered wrong to kill a horse and make 
use of its carcass has CONTRIBUTED to the over breeding of horses because it 
leaves alive animals to be bred which otherwise would have been killed 
before they could be bred. The compulsion to use a horse that you are 
feeding for SOMETHING is strong. Far better to arrange to for it to stop 
needing feed than to arrange to breed it.
