You guys are gonna see another guy come outta Texas soon. Rick Perry. If you see him hold on to your wallet. He's our current governor. He is trying to sell our lottery. Before he tries to sell it he first rapes it for projects not intended to be funded by the lottery when the people voted it in. Our lottery here in Texas was set up to fund the schools, but has been used to fund all kinda shit instead. Sound familiar? Social security?
A lot of states have pulled that crap - and that idea. Perry sure acts like he has a "mandate" - even though I don't think he would have been re-elected if there hadn't been four candidates actively running in the field. But the lottery scam is amazing - as much as I disliked most of the things Georgia did when I lived there, the one thing I liked was that they used that lottery money to provide free tuition to college for students who kept a "B" average in high school, I think. . .
