Lottery privatization: As Pennsylvania continues to gray, money will be needed for seniors

http://www.pennlive.com/editorials/index.ssf/2012/04/lottery_privatization_as_penns.html

I work for an agency that is very dependant on Lottery money. This has been an issue for us for a long time. I personally am not sure if this is a good thing or bad. There just isn't enough information out there except that from what I've heard in some conference calls I've been in, Illinois appears to be the model they are using.

The big fear was the legalized slots and table games would decrease lottery sales, but that has not happened.

also, the aging network hasn't seen funding levels rising in proportion to the growth in population that the network serves. But that hasn't been limited just to Corbet.
