who knows where that education money is going? those people who run colleges and university's are vastly overpaid. what do they do? show up 180 days a year and hide in their offices most of the time. trying their best not to be noticed. reminds me of that fraudulent senator from ma elizabeth warren who actually wants to be president. she taught one class a week and made 300,000.00 a year and yet pretends to lobby for lower tuition rates for students. what a fraud, what a phoney. of course all po...

Yep, and this is where it's at...more people playing and winning while the state is still able to take care of education. The whole idea of a small percentage of players being able to only enjoy the money they've spent by seeing it in education is a one-sided deal. It's the 'players' that keep the ball rolling so why not allow more people to win big prizes, enjoy better lives, and see their kids benefit education-wise.

Lottery revenue was more than $1.26 billion for the year. Ticket sales grew by $66 million, which meant the amount that got deposited into the lottery's education account was $323.4 million, or $23 million more than the previous year.... [ More ]
