I'm not so sure that 2/3's of the $27M is going to the government, if I'm not mistaken, they take 32% in taxes. If lottery winners opt for an immediate cash payment rather than the usual long term lottery payout over 30 yrs their winnings are reduced substantially, by about half, I think.
Does AR have that abandoned baby law ?

Of course, that 32%, IMO, is about 32% more than they should take.
