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 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!

Anyone else hate that some states won't let winners remain anonymous?Reply
In Tx, Gov Abbot signed legislation that allows a person winning a million or more can remain anonymous. The commissioners voted to change the official rules a couple weeks ago. Nice to see, although I wouldn't worry too much about it if I was a jackpot winner.

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 ??

Hi Terry, Who makes the decision to switch from computerized drawings to ball drawings? Is that a lottery director or does some form of legislation have to be enacted to make the switch?
