Study finds wealthy counties get most benefit from Indiana Lottery profitsNews Story
When you play the Hoosier Lottery, the odds are against you. But if you're poor? Then, so is the system. An Indianapolis Star review of the Hoosier Lottery has found that while lower-income players disproportionately fund the lottery, the state transfers lottery profits disproportionately to the wealthiest counties.

Ok, I seriously could not let this list go by without injecting my twisted sense of really bad humor into it. Oh and if I offend anyone, that makes it even better. 1. Money should be earned by honest, legal and morally right methods. Seriously now, that would exclude every freaking politician out there. 2. One should marry a girl (or a boy) of his own or her own cultural and religious back- ground. OK...where's the ACLU, I know those folks gonna protest like crazy about this one 3. Gi
