when you play the lottery don't you have to show some kind of "LEGAL FORM OF ID" in order to collect your winnings??
I have noticed when changing the channel that there are many non ENGLISH SPEAKING people who need translations in order to play those games on the "BIG SPIN" run by the CALIFORNIA LOTTERY.
And last i remember these monies put into the lottery were paid by us TAX PAYING people who worked to support this lottery.
Now i am all for everyone having some luck and enjoying it but i feel that this is a kick in the pants to those of us who never get the chance to win like those who are not from here and do not contribute to our great STATE (CALIFORNIA) by paying taxes.
I remember years ago i got a scratcher that said 'BIG SPIN " But i never got called .
Why is it that most of those winners DO NOT speak ENGLISH and where did they get the ID'sto claim their prizes and do they pay taxes??
WHAT THE?? This makes no sense to me!!

ARE THEY AMERICAN CITIZENS??

DfDeportation ,

Not naive , just trying to figure where our BIG GUYS get off allowing those who already receive benefits that they do not pay into and also allow these same opportunists come to our STATE and collect on another free ride we put our hard earned money into!!!
After all if they ( The GOVERNOR and all the other BIG WIGS) were actually trying to keep these illegals out of here wouldn't they control who actually receives these winnings and wouldn't there be some sort of law that they have to sho ID and pay taxes on those winnings?

I didn't just fall off the turnip truck but i feel that we deserve some answers .

SOMEONES POCKETS ARE GETTING FAT AND I KNOW THEY AREN'T MINE!!
Do you think anyone that maybe those who allow these illegals to take these winnings without proper ID and being a citizen that MAYBE THEY TAKE A CUT OF THE WINNINGS FOR ALLOWING THEM TO KEEP THE WINNINGS???

anyone can play the lottery. they can be visiting from anywhere in the world, if they win, they win. the lottery is no different than going to vegas and winning a million bucks, than flying home to Guadalajara and relaxing the rest of your life. checks keep coming in the mail every month.

I guess you are all right .. except for Mr. craftyguy.
What is a classic gambler anyway?
But what a pitty !
I guess our people in charge of our money and lives are right we might as well give them amnesty because they get everything we get and more anyway!!

Don't feel bad leo, that user was attacking my own blog posts earlier, he or she may belong to one of those Hollywood hate America groups, ya gotta love em for trying to act too liberal in conservative leaning blogs, but than again, what fun would we have without the Hollywood Industry types who like to step on others due to their sheer industry arrogance.

This is one thing I don't have a problem with...Illegals spending their money here in the good ol' US of A on Lottery Tickets, or as I like to call them, "Stupidity Vouchers". The lottery is like a tax for being greedy and gullible at the same time. I don't care who wins the money. It won't be me, because I am smart enough to not just throw my money away like that. I work too damn hard to piss it away on gambling. A fool and his money are soon parted.

It's about luck, that's it.

I believe a small percentage of the money that is spent playing lottos nation wide goes towards, or is suppose to go towards local governments. Isn't that why they were implemented to begin with? A percentage of proceeds earned from ticket purchases was suppose to help end deficits, ESPECIALLY California! But I think you are right in the fact that instead the money is making government pigs even fatter and piggier. When you think about it, it makes sense that the illegals are actually contributing in this sense. However, it lowers the odds of local legal residents and citizens from winning!!!!!

I get what you mean, after all when an illegal is asked to show any type of ID or Social Security # it is usually bogus. Isnt that a crime?
