The Tax Break Shenanigans
of J. Winston Krause
In 2008, Commissioner Krause sued the
IRS to get a refund of interest and penalties
he had paid for a disallowed deduction
and income. The disallowed deduction ...
he bought Canadian dollars for $20K;
claimed he paid $2.8 million; he showed
a loss of <$2.7 million> yet he had
sold the Canadian dollars for $19.5K.
A 2010 5th Circuit of Appeals quote ...
"Krause's Tax Chicanery" A very
interesting and telling story about
the man who Chairs our Lottery.

Beware!
In Oct 2013, the odds Increased from
175.7 million-to-one to 259 million-to-one.
(Matrix changed ... pick 5 from a pool of 75 numbers)
Whoa ... it's going to be so much harder to win.

Since the new rule took effect (Oct 22, 2013),
the game is doing exactly what they intended
for it to do ... ROLL!

And the players are expressing their disgust
by speaking with their dollars ... sales are DOWN.

Here's Proof ...
On Dec 13, 2013 the MM jackpot was $400 million
and sales were $167,868,489. On March 18, 2014, the
MM jackpot was $400 million and sales were $113,435,277.
YEP ... I'd say sales ARE down!
