But it is not the lottery screwing this guy it is that's right boys and girls - the government. Lottery offers the long-term payouts to help the winning individuals maintain more of their winnings and limits their liability to guess who - government. However, those individuals who take the lump sum, are now faced with having to pay that lump sum to government. But that is what happens when you seek to punish the rich, you end up hurting the poor even more.

Oh well, this is what so many here support so vigorously. Stand up and applaud your work.

Conservatism, I repeat is not an ideology. It does not breed fanatics....But if you want men who seek, reasonably and prudently, to reconcile the best in wisdom of our ancestors with the change which is essential to a vigorous civil social existence, then you will do well to turn to conservative principles
