i definitely would if I could get a hold of them!

Ok just remember Maude when you win Beets. I mean we are Poll-mates right, lol? =)

The chance of you getting struck by lightning on the way to buy a lottery ticket is bigger than the chance of you actually winning the lottery.

personally, i am not a huge fan of it whatsoever. although i’d like know where all that money comes from and why it isn’t allocated to hospitals, schools etc? yes people will argue that doing the lottery is a personal choice. just like it is a personal choice as to whether we chose to smoke, eat unhealthy food and all that. but as it is mainly public money the government is frittering away with, is it then a choice to see money going into the pockets of people just by picking a random set of numbers? and why has so little money gone to charitable causes and more of it to things such as the royal opera house, the london olympics, and dare i say it the now- defunct millenium dome? i like to know what your views are on this. how should the lottery be run? should the jackpot prize be limited and if so how much ? are there too many games, what with scratch cards to name but a couple? where should most of the money go? are you satisfied with labour’s role in the running of lottery?

Personally its one big scam for the fat cats.and yes were dose all the money go.and no i am not satisfied with labour’s roll running the lottery.their should be more money given to hospital’s. schools. children’s homes. old peoples homes not send it to other country’s

I know I should have maybe called the police, but at the time I was in a rush for something very important and this was before sign your ticket was common knowledge and the clerk told me the bells going off was an errors and refused to give back the ticket. which comes off now like I was part of a con. Any help would be greatly appreciated. thank you.

Well you should have called the police right there, since you had your ticket stolen from you. It’s a little late now. And the ticket is only yours once you sign it.

If someone steals your winning ticket, you call the police right there and have them arrested for theft.

I would definitely file a complaint with the lottery commission where you are at and see if you can get something done.

How much effort would you put in to locate the winner and return it?

A lot. I bet they would be so grateful for it that they would reward you handsomely!

I asked this question before: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Ah1CqAxT6dx5YIDDsnE_Zdzsy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20070826120054AAQJIcR

and did some research. And Its seems that the government will "legalize" anything they can make money from. For example: Isn’t the lottery a numbers racket, which is a federal offense? and a form of gambling, also illegal? and is Pornography just videographed prostitution, which is illegal?
This question isn’t a statement of opinion. I really want to understand how these types of laws work.

Federal law governs things that affect more than one state. For example, prostitution is legal in Nevada, but transporting women over state lines for the purpose of promoting prostitution is a violation of the federal Mann act.

Same with the lottery. Gambling is legal within some states, but promotion of a multi-state, private lottery will violate federal law. Federal law does not regulate the super lottos run by several states together, because the states themselves are sovereign and the federal government has no jurisdiction to stop this state-sanctioned activity.
