The Governor doesn't give a hill of beans about the Senior Citizens that the lottery was set up for. NO mention of their benefits being cut or deminished.

#2 or should be #1

NO company is going to take over the lottery without winfall profits. I can see the scams now. If anyone thinks its hard to hit the daily or other games now, wait until they take over. I still remember the first time 666 played and it was a set up, just think when the 'company' takes over how many 666's we will... [ More ]

If the decision will benefit the majority of the PA people, then I agree to the privatization. But if this will only benefit those in authority, it might as well remain in the hands of State lottery....

We , are just giving to many bids to these consultants companys and interest groups. All for more profits. The profit is coming out Lottery players pocket in that state. I have questions. Can the people from the United Kingdom play in the PENN. if the Camelot Group win the bid? If the British company win the bid can the people in that country play in the Pennsylvania Lottery? Think about these, Lottery player, do we really want one of these consultants to be working on 4- 5- or more State Lotter... [ More ]

Democrat Ed Rendell has absolutely nothing to do with this and doesn't stand to profit a penny from it!

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go feed my Unicorn.

As Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Corbett considers whether to hand the reins of the state lottery over to a British company, he's been getting advice from a firm with ties to his predecessor.

Former Gov. Ed Rendell is a senior adviser to Greenhill Partners, which stands to make millions if Corbett signs off on a private management agreement with the North American subsidiary of The Camelot Group, which runs the National Lottery in the United Kingdom.

Corbett has until at least Monday to decide whe... [ More ]
