No, I don't have one of the winning tickets, unfortunately. But I did read some disturbing comments:
It would take the average American household 12,800 YEARS to earn $640 million.
It only takes the US government 1 HOUR and 29 MINUTES to spend that much. No wonder the country is awash in red ink.

You could squeeze 2 hours out of it if the president would stay in Washington.

My brother's wife would leave the US Government standing.

Another estimate was that our guberment spends this amount every 85 seconds.
Why we don't see all these idiots home from Washington is beyond me. This is pure insanity!
Its a wonderful day in the neighborhood!

Americans spent a reported 1.5 billion for the chance to win 644 million.... that picture aint right either
"Good Judgement" comes from experience, ... and a lot of that..... results from "Bad Judgement".
