They should let me and everyone else here in NYC know where all the Lotto money goes that presumably is spent on education. One of the worst infrastructures as of right now. I could care less about his proposed tax for non-diet soda also. Patterson's not bad guy. Just doing what I guess is only been done for centuries. Aside from The Big Easy The Big Apple most corrupt state in the Union. That said. "I love New York." Go figure.

More piracy now for tax on music proposal.

Sure does and a very bottomless one at that. Gambling one of biggest vices around. Who wouldn't want to be a millionaire? A dollar and a dream. We keep on dreaming and they keep on taking the dollar.
