$340 million dollar prize. Drawing on Wednesday evening.


You guys pay tax on the lottery! What a rip off!

I noticed on the website the guy who won $93m but only got $36m, talk about
being stiffed.

Our lottery pays out tax free and in a lump sum. None of this pay you over
20 years crap. You win $93m you get $93m.


Who runs your lottery, some sort of organized crime syndicate?
Because, I can't believe that a governmental agency would run one
as you describe.
