LOTTERY AND SCHOOLS

Maybe that would be a good question for our governor to answer. I am guessing that they "found" a new way to spend that money.

I just figured out the answer, you are upset because you spend so much money scratching off of the lotto tickets and watching your money go in the trash can, you want to know who you are supporting?

  MAYBE !

So does that mean you are saving your $1 winners for me to take in for you?

Daniels Ad Reality Check

Mitch Daniels is at it again with his misleading campaign commercials. This time he’s claiming that the Hoosier Lottery was always intended to pay for education.

But an investigation by WISH-TV shows that’s not true, according to the creators of the lottery:

The bill devoted the profits to construction projects through what was known as the Build Indiana Fund. Then-governor Evan Bayh advanced the idea in his State of the State address that year and the legislature approved it.

It might seem like a small fib, but it’s important. That misleading statement is Mitch’s excuse for his scheme to sell the Lottery in another budget shell game. The reality is that this is just a new way to get revenues into corporate coffers, instead of taxpayer pockets where they belong.

I found nothing relating the casinos to direct revenue expected for education.

Where the money goes from the in.gov website

I see where they get the 'education' illusion from.  The lotto players are making sure that the teachers are taken care of once they retire.  This is causing me to raise an eyebrow.
