2nd lottery bill filed in the Alabama SenateReply
I feel like this article is posted on LP and reposted every other month. They either get the lottery or THEY DON'T. Does it have to go through this many rounds of legislation?

Alabama senator announces lottery planReply
Alabama State Sen. Jim McClendon of Springville is like a bulldog. He never gives up on passing legislation to create a lottery in his State. I wish him success this time.

Alabama lawmakers provide insight into upcoming push for state lotteryReply
Just an idea: If they were to pass lotto legislation, consider making AL an anonymous state. True, transparency is a huge issue with lotto, but it's an idea. I would consider crossing the border if that were the case!

Lottery-winner secrecy bill dies in Idaho SenateNews Story
An Idaho Senate panel has killed legislation that would have allowed lottery winners to hide their identities. The Senate State Affairs Committee on Wednesday voted 8-1 to halt the measure that would have kept the names of individuals who win $600 or more secret.

British Columbia Lottery taking bets on US electionReply
Obama's signature piece of legislation is the far-right Heritage Foundations health care proposal from the 90's called the affordable care act . Obama came into office an extreme homophobe but thankfully changed his mind. Obama has done nothing on guns but sign bills to REDUCE gun control. He is a center-right moderate conservative. You are an anarchist-capitalist, simple as that. I'd rather a bloated government that makes sure there isn't mass starvation and death over a complete lack of govern

Quebec bill would force Internet firms to block access to online gambling sitesReply
The Devil's Advocate argument to this legislation is that the government does have an interest in legislating morality if the situation involves the mental or physical health and safety of its citizens as a whole. We live in a day and age where the morality and values of society have seriously declined, tending toward Ground 0, and at the rate we're going now in society, how are we going to salvage basic morals, values, virtue, and respect for the value and dignity of human life ?? Even thou

Texas man charged in Iowa lottery case contests extraditionReply
This happens more than you might realize. Especially when crooks employ high priced attorneys that argue under a particular state's legislation evidence collected would be insufficient to secure an indictment. At the end of the day, he's toast!

Connecticut Lottery makes its pitch for kenoNews Story

After that, proponents say keno will genera

Multi-state Lucky for Life game comes to KentuckyReply
It would be nice if the state legislation would lift the 35% restrictions I did think about contacting my legislator but don't know what good it would do. I guess I'll just have to continue to play in Texas.
