Reply #2: This has got to be the biggest money-making scam

[cliss]

ever devised. Pays off even better than looting the treasury. Right, George?

Think about it: 622,000 tickets are sold during an hour. Assuming the tickets are $1 each, that's $622,000 per hour, or $14,928,000 in one day.

And what services did the Lottery provide for all that money? Nothing, except the hope that someone will win big.

Also, the lottery commission usually keeps 50% of the proceeds so that's $7 million they just made in one day.

I could not come up with anything so profitable if I tried. They provide no services; expenses are probably minimal, and they get to keep half of what they rake in.

Fabulous!
