Don't they say that lotteries are a tax on the stupid? Or was it a tax on the poor? 😉

Stupid and poor if they are planning on the lottery being their savior. I am not in that position as I have saved and invested for 20 years since my mid-20s.

Honestly though...I have never gambled or played the lottery......just being a little silly to quell the angst of living in our new and enlightened world.

I'm a little puzzled by the tone of this article. It seems to deplore the fact that the prison population in Virginia is declining. Shouldn't it be a good thing that the number of prisoners is going down? Why would we want to continue filling prisons if we don't have to?

I'm inclined to agree with you here, normally I'm all for scoffing at government throwing money away, but if you project needing x capacity in 10 years and start construction on new prisons based on that projection, it's an awefully good problem to have empty prisons sitting around because you don't have enough inmates. In fact, I'd be willing to bet that the government is coming out ahead still.

only if you ignore the opportunity cost -- i.e., the alternate uses of that 100 million bucks.
