      <description><![CDATA[At least the TLC is honest about their intentions.  The program is a money-raiser for the state and not entertainment for the masses.  If you enjoy playing, that's fine.  If you enjoy winning, that is up to luck and your stomach for losing.  I play because I enjoy it, but I have no sense of entitlement.  Just because I play, doesn't mean I am entitled to win. Do the math.Orangeman]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[I totally agree with Cash, people arent idiots. I am back home in NY this weekend for pleasure and the only tickets I will buy are take fives. Even NY scratch offs are horrible. 5 million to one odds to win top prizes in most scratch off games is horrible.  Id rather go to OTB and blow my money there and at least have a fighting chance.]]></description>

Critics warned that it could cr... [&nbsp;<a href="http://www.lotterypost.com/news/111858">More</a>&nbsp;]]]></description>
