Any Federal law would not be nearly as harsh as the law in WA state where even posting about online gambling is illegal and a felony. Same penalties for possessing child porn. So it's not about the children. It's about the cash. In this state is was corrupt politicians and a corrupt gaming commsion recieving monies from tribal casinos.

I would not be surprised if a Federal law were passed because it mixes a powergrab with sizable donations from tribal/Nevada/Atlantic City et al.

TheGameGrl i bet that that 70 or 75K is only in those two areas, in los Angeles, and las Vegas, only 1 state and 1 city...When i said they need to raise the salary of cops i mean ALL OF THEM, the entire country...I am talking cops and state troopers, marshals, etc....The U.S is not a third world country...

...Yeah you won the lottery.....good for you......but is only you....

Before making an overgeneralized statement please research . Las Vegas cops make a minimum of 75 K a year! Los angeles, same thing. I assure you I can LIVE nicely on that amount without saying I need a raise! Check the state sites for average pay . You'd be surprised how much these careers average and how little work they really do to maintain civility within your area.

As to *illegal* or banned drugs, it goes without saying that BOTH the seller and the supplier are to be reprimanded based on... [ More ]

(Symbollically) what if instead of rifles with silencers, they had guys that were lottery snipers, guys that could hit the game consistently with 1 shot fired symbollically speaking sort of speak, in other words with 1 or a handful of combinations???

A projectile with super-sonic velocity can't be silenced because of the sonic boom. Lottery-snipers who wanted a chance for a second shot would have to keep it sub-sonic or the lotteries would duck.

Nicely said LottoMike. It really erks me when immoral politicians try to impose THEIR ideas of morality onto us, the public at large, when it's as plain as the nose on your face, that the reasons for their escapades into changing most of our activities with a law has a monetary intent behind it.

It also erks me when companies impose radical changes in their profit making affords that directly affects each and everyone of us, and then they boast about how much they made, (ie; gas companies and... [ More ]

IF we are going to go into politics, What they need to do is erradicate drugs out of this planet...A drug dealer is not your brother...Not go against people that take it but people that sell it..That and increase the pay of police officers, which is sad to see a country's police officers get paid so little...They need to eliminate of this planet drug sellers...

Congress bets it can grab power over gambling

House wants to outlaw all attempts to place wagers over the Internet

The House of Representatives voted 245 to 159 to pass the Internet Gambling Prohibition Act of 1999. Because of a rule requiring two-thirds approval, the measure didn't pass. Its sponsor, Bob Goodlatte, R-Va., plans to introduce it again when only a majority is needed for passage.

If enacted, it would amend the federal criminal code to make it unlawful for any person engag... [ More ]

you just said something that struck a chord with me.the lottery is a like a stock market.the thing is the only stock market the government wants you to play is one where you are at their mercy.thats why they hate the online gambling so much is that they can't control the action.yes there are plenty of losers but there are also winners winning piles of money and they are controlling their own destiny that is not determined by the governments hand.you see they have to control the outcome of everyt...

I'm not completely following the rational side of the symbolism in your thinking, but if it gets you any closer to cashing a lottery ticket, more power to you. The vast majority of people lose money on lottery play, so I suppose it might require some outside-the-box thinking in order to get ahead of the games.

Good luck,

aye

I don't know why guys, but ever since i got addicted to the lottery, all i can think of it the lottery...I tend to think symbollically too...Even though i may be criticized by this, i don't expect you to understand it but only for the very few viewers that can...Today i went and see the movie Miami vice and there was a part where three snipers with long range rifles, with silencers and 1 eye binoculars, were shooting at 2 FBI undercovered members, and all i could think about was (Symbollically...
