Who's Afraid of Online Gambling?Reply
The biggest online operators so far are out of the UK. Not surprised that MGM would consider having an offshore internet presence. I'm sure other multi-national corporate gaming interests will join them. I'm also not surprised by the corruption on the part of those trying to stop the inevitable.

New Mexico Lottery names new CEOReply
NY needs a new lottery chief. I'm sure we'll get one assuming Eliot Spitzer (a Democrat; Republican George Pataki is in his 12th year as governor and is not seeking re-election) wins the statehouse in November. But whoever takes over the NY Lottery probably will be little more than a puppet for the corruption-filled branch of state government.

Powerball now behind on cashReply
US lotteries were annuity-only to support companies that would make money off of players' winnings. This corruption still exists, to a smaller degree (mostly in MA and NY).

Is the Lottery (PB/MM) corrupt?Reply
When I think of corruption in state lotteries, I cite MA and NY as the prime examples, with their annuity-only (no cash option) scratch games. MA Megabucks' jackpot also is annuity-only.

Indiana lottery rigger faces 50-year penaltyReply
Based on some peoples viewpoint, it is all the fault of tempation. The cure? Pay every lottery employee a minimum wage of ten million dollars a year. No one is immune to tempation, so take away the temptation. That is the answer to what would make the lottery immune to corruption.

Ex-lottery employee claims bias complaint led to firingReply
There are a lot of Judases some where. I have learned to choose the battles I fight. The way to win the Texas corruption war is to make 'em go BROKE! Keep on suing, despite the fact there is a gag order. The more suits, the less they have to work with. The dollar drives.
