Here we go again. Another Lottery Post member feeling superior because they pay for the extra features.I don't feel like I am riding on anyone's back or that you or any other paying member has made a purchase for the space I use when I make a post. I would think that everyone is welcome to come here and share their views as long as they abide by the rules.I don't know Cash Only's situation but I can easily afford to upgrade. I just don't have any reason to. I don't want to use any wheels or see... [ More ]

Big business calls the shots, what's new? Follow the money - look at campaign donations!But relax everyone! If you live in a state without a lottery, you don't have to waste time and money crossing state lines. Just call Massachusetts lottery from the comfort of your own home, it' a toll free number, order over the phone and the tickets will be shipped to you. I don't know how much Massachusetts makes from out-of-state sales, it must be millions.If you live in a state without a lottery and would... [ More ]

Good Grief CASH Only!!! With as many posts that you have, you should know better than to stick your neck out like that.Just out of curiosity...why are you freeloading on Lottery Post? It appears that you have superseded your gentleman's agreement of only taking up a limited amount of web space for free. Sure, you may have been a paying member previously and you can't afford it right now, so maybe it is wrong of me to wildly accuse you riding our backs. So, I will not do that...just as you shou...

And just what makes YOU think I'm anti-lottery? Ever read any of my posts? BTW, I sure don't see YOUR Lottery Post screen name highlighted in yellow.You don't live in Alabama. Siegalman is NOT a good choice for govenor of this state, regardless of his position on the lottery. The lottery vote didn't pass last time, in part because people didn't trust Siegalman's politicing and cronyism.Get a clue before you start hurling accusations.

We do not need anti-lottery people on Lottery Post. This is a pro-lottery site.

Nevadans who are 18, 19, or 20 have CA as an option. The minimum age for lottery in AZ is 21.

In Nevada the Casinos don't what competiton, there's no ethical or moral concern in a state that legal gambling, prositution (county by county basis) and booze. Competition from the State of Nevada just sends shivers up their well massaged spines. Brrrrrrr

It only works when you win. You don't need a lottery to lose.

As I left, it made me wonder, how many Southern Nevadans ran to the border for themselves and their friends, and how much money was leaving Nevada? If Nevada had a lottery, how much money would it bring to the retailers and state programs such as education? What impact would it bring to local businesses providing printing, advertising and other necessary services? How many jobs would that provide? As I left, it made me wonder, how many Southern Nevadans Alabamians ran to the border for themselve... [ More ]

An entertaining story about a jaunt to a bordering state to buy lottery tickets highlights Nevada's lack of a lottery and shoots down the 'regressive tax' theory.It was a typical Wednesday.Up at 4:45 a.m., I got in my morning walk with a friend, then negotiated with my husband to drop off the first set of boys at school (he graciously capitulated) so that I could start the day's adventure early.I put on my favorite hot pink T-shirt with the Black Mountain Community Bank logo, denim overalls, a...
