I am for it as long as it does what it's supposed to do . But they can't garrentee that it goes to the schools then I'm totally against it . I think everything should go and help the schools as long as the funds are spent appropriately. And not wasted away .

Would you like to see some ocean front property here in Missouri? The schools won't see diddly. But, I agree with your intent. Please vote No on 2.

I remember when the lottery was the end all of end alls for school financing. And look, our schools are worse than ever. It is not going to take any more people or money to improve the educational system. It's going to take massive reform, starting at the federal level

This has nothing to do with schools, if you don't believe it whatever happened to the lottery money? Wasn't it supposed to fix everything.

When the lottery finally got to us, we were promised fantastic roads and schools! Well?? We've had the lottery for a very long time, yet we still have failing roads and schools! Shouldn't have taken this long...where's the $$?? I don't believe the schools will see a dime!

The current administration of Iran has proven to be unreliable and is not trustworthy.

No, not as long as the current regime is in power. Theocracies are always bad news ... something we should keep in mind!

That has been going on since the Prophet Muhammad found the Muslim church in 610 AD.

Should Congress have a say in whether the U.S. strikes Iran?

The Constitution vests the power in the legislative branch to ensure decisions on war are made democratically, rather than by a single person.

It would take congress years to make a decision, and the amount of pork required would be phenomenal. Congress is dysfunctional.

Most congressmen are millionaires, but our nation is nearly $40 Trillion in debt.

Congress can't even pass a budget to fund the government.
