Poll: Aliens and LottoReply
Tell that to the guy that was in jail for 27years innocent. The system is not 100% perfect, but it's the best system we have. Unfortunately for that guy, it didn't work, but the system is designed to work as close as possible to truth and integrity. There will always be holes within that system, like corruption, and that guy fell thru it. Or it could be a myriad of other circumstances which led to the unjust guilty decision.

Which states and lottery games will you play once online gambling is legal?Reply
If the pre-tests are a result of the corruption in PA years ago, wouldn't it better to have transparency in the process now? What harm is there in letting players see the pre-tests and know the numbers? We need to be convinced of legitimacy, not them! Afterall, if it was the lottery people who corrupted the system last time, why are we allowing them to be the arbitrators of legitimacy now? This is like The Wizard of Oz saying Pay No Attention To The Man Behind The Curtain! Screw that,

Illinois Lottery may privatize lottery to solve budget woesReply
There'll never be a term limit in Chicago. Too many people on the dole, payroll or entitlement system. They all vote religiously. That keeps corruption empowered. Same thing Obama is trying to do. Chicago is a lost cause - let's hope we can save the country.

New Jersey: 3/1 - 3/31/2010Reply
Thanks Calabs.I didn't understand it was that bad in New Jersey. Is the New Jersey state Govt. so hard up for money that they would create a corrupt scheme such as this and not expect the populace to take notice? I would not play pick 3 or pick 4 if I lived in your state...this is yet another form of Govt.corruption as far as I'm concerned..

Michigan Daily games appear to be riggedReply
It happened........your only proof of why you say it didn't happen is that you don't believe me.......you say I'm lying......or you can't get your mind around it. Wow what great research. I personally talked to the clerk that sold the tickets. The very first thing I do when I get these type of info is to see if in fact 400 tickets were sold that day.......well over 900 were sold that day. FYI the normal number of winning straight up tickets for most days is about 6 to 10. As far as the IRS of co

North Carolina: 2/1 - 2/28/2010Reply
Ya know I'm growing tired of NCEL's BS.....why do we have pre-draws in the first place? The fact that they have pre-draws suggests corruption as far as I'm concerned because it gives them the opportunity to put out the combination that pays the less amount of money... I may quit playing pick 3 all together...

This is just another form of Govt. corruption as far as I'm concerned...I mean why should any number be locked out and why should there be several pre-draws? I mean helll NCEL's already has the game hijacked with the low payout and the odds in thier favor... The odds in pick 3 are waaaaay worse than roulette at vegas and they want more of a house edge? This is turning into BS!

Iowa lottery offering bonus holiday drawingReply
TN already has the same thing where you can register losing scratchers for a 2nd chance drawing. Though I rarely play scratchers I find that I have the same luck on 2nd chance drawings as I do on the original scratchers - none. I think it's a good idea for Iowa or any other state to do it though. The one bad aspect with TN though is you don't have to show a ticket for the 2nd chance drawing if you win. I think that unnecessarily leaves a window open for possible corruption. I don't like th

Are lotteries part of the solution to the crisis in states' budgets?Reply
I will agree with you to a point on this Todd. The government involvement in every aspect of our lives is a large part of what's going wrong in America. The government should be for the people and by the people....not for the governement. In effect, what you have done is proved four4me's point. The simple answer on how to make state and federal defecits disappear is as simple as four4me said. However, due to government involvement and mismanagement of everything they underatake (not to mention c
