$1.1 BILLION: Powerball jackpot increased in longest-ever winless streakReply
Yes, that would be much simpler and fairer. Taxes should be built into the price of the ticket, although I understand each state has different taxes and you wouldn't have a flat ticket price. Let's be honest, unless you take the actual cash and stuff it in a mattress, the winnings will be spent or invested and thus taxed at every stage - profits, dividends, interest, stamp duties, sales taxes etc etc etc. Here in Australia our Powerball jackpots are obviously much lower given our population

US Powerball multi-state lottery game expanding to the UKReply
The statement made above about USA not able to play in other countries lottery is not exactly true. Let's break it down . USA has the Biggest and best Lottery in the World so USA is selling lottery plans to the World. If other countries had the best lottery's then they can sell it to USA .

US Powerball multi-state lottery game expanding to the UKReply
I love this - was looking forward to it. Change is good - keeps things interesting. I think it should spread to Australia, Canada and Europe as well. I like that they will keep the ticket cost at $2 in the US. Hope for an increase in the jackpot reset amount. I would have liked if they scrapped the taxes on the US side of things if the game won't be taxed on the UK side.
