So, do I read this correctly - North Carolina is blackmailing Virginia, South Carolina and Georgia?

North Carolina is blackmailing...

I think it breaks down like this - North Carolinians SUPPORT their durn lotteries by buying tickets. Now, some goober in the state assembly wants a ton of that scratch back.

Do the gobs of loot go to lottery ticket purchasers? Nooooooo...

Could some one tell me why the states of SC, GA, and VA should have to pay for the stupidity of the people of NC electing a tax and spend liberal governor and state assembly? I DIDN'T THINK SO.

Yeah I don't get the reparations angle either. NC can pass any laws it wants to. GA, SC and VA are under no obligation to do anything with NC in this matter and ought to tell the State to go to Hell and mind its own business.

You all need to go back and read the article again. NC is agreeing with the surrounding states to NOT implement a NC state lottery of their own. In consideration for NC refraining from starting their own lottery, for a five year period, the surrounding states are agreeing to pay NC for that state's residents for their proration of the lottery gains.

Seems to me a fair agreement between all states involved. Especially, if NC allows ticket sales for the other states within NC.

Seems to me most of you read the word REPARATIONS to mean money to go to its BLACKS in reparation for slavery.

You need to go back and read the article once more and this time try to comprehend its true meaning.
