@realjohnboy,

I don't know Illinois tax rates either, but it is one of the highest.

IMHO, I think it's wrong for people to be free from taxes, no matter what their income level.

@cicerone imposter,

I dont think anyone is "free" from taxes, even if they dont pay income tax.
There are all kinds of other taxes that people pay, even if they dont realize it.

Gas taxes, sales tax, tobacco tax, etc.

Nobody is free from taxes.

Nobody is free from taxes, but plenty pay for their goods and their taxes with OPM given to them by the government.

Truer words never said. All one has to do is check your phone bill for starters

And think of those losers that play the lotteries, it is really nothing more than an irresponsible and overpowerful goverhment placing a regressive tax on the poor, the poor that are hoping to strike it rich in a conveniience store while they buy their cigarettes and beer, pulling tens of billions out of the economy every year. Sure sure, the liberals care about the poor, ha ha, that is a laugh. It would be funny if it were not so sad.

"In Fiscal Year 2003, total consumer spending on lotteries was nearly $45 billion and per capita spending was $155.33."

Were George Washington, Benjamin Franklin and John Hancock liberals, Okie?

Lotteries in the United States are run by individual jurisdictions. As of 2010, a total of 46 jurisdictions have amended or re-written their constitutions to allow for a lottery. The District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands also operate lotteries.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lotteries_in_the_United_States

Are there "liberal" governments in all 46 of these state jurisdictions, Okie?

Have these states that have a lottery never had a conservative government?

Were the lotteries canceled when GWB was prez and then started up again when Obama got in?

@okie,

You have no idea what the lottery really is for the poor. It is hope. It is the possibility for a way out. The rich go to casinos.

Bullshit!
The lottery is a tax on the stupid.
Research how life is for the poor lottery winners a year or two after they win their way out.

Like I thought, you made it up.

@revelette,

He's not making it up, R, he's just getting it confused with the GOP's Healthcare Plan :
1)Don't get sick.
2) If you do get sick, die quickly.

I know, that mostly seems directed at the old, but that's because the Republicans don't have much use for women, except as window-dressing for campaigns or unless they have their own money.

Joe(and they keep hoping that the few who are around, shut up)Nation

I didn't make it up nor did I get confused.

Obama and his democrats actually want to kill women and let the elderly die.

You can't keep making unsubstantiated statements without any kind of supporting facts. I mean anybody can say anything, but what does it mean in the end if there is no way to verify it? Can you not see that, or do you just not care? Why bother posting at all?

Don't say I didn't warn you, h2oman. Once again you've been caught out and you're being called on your complete lack of substance.

Amen. The government lotteries are government run scams to prey on the stupid and the poor. Their hope is a figment of their imagination, same as the hope that Obama preached to win the Whitehouse. It was a giant scam and still is. It is based upon getting something for nothing. All the great scammers use the scheme to feather their own nests.

Are you running this as some kind of a retraction of your previous idiotic statements, Okie?
