I can't relate to one person winning that much, I would much rather see many people winning a couple of million.
Of course, unless it is me. lol lol

its too bad they amortize the lotteries.
I see people are catching the American power ball lottery fever, and to think they take
about half back in taxes, once again they are behind Canada we get to keep it all tax
free.
The real big lotto though is in Spain. Its centuries old and El Gordo last year paid out
more than a billion dollars as its top prize. Mind you the tickets are about 150 dollars
American and you can buy two dollar pieces of tickets if you want to.
I wouldn't buy into a fifty percent tax grab ticket system period.

I think you're right, it is a 50% tax grab. Uncle Sam must love the Lotto Max, lol.
They don't call it the idiot tax for nothing right?
A friend said today that the tax on that lotto is more like 60% which means the US government would get to buy $380 million worth of bombs if someone wins it.
