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!

Trump has destroyed every thing. Living in a median begging for money for my booze...but still have my phone and EBT card.

Amen, to that Eric. I know exactly how you feel, and what you are saying. A liberal's interpretation of Proverbs 22:9. Your satire is exquisite.

No

Never had a big budget for holidays or birthdays. We have too much stuff already so we concentrate on time together and a few useful thoughtful gifts, often hand-made.

Obviously, an article regarding Christmas, will not get many views in a blue city like Columbia.

On Christmas, my kids often just ask me for meaningful advice. They are in their fifties, and they have learned enough to know, that they can always learn more. We still give each other the benefits of our skills that we have acquired over the years. These gifts are priceless, and they last forever.

Christmas commemorates the birth of Jesus Christ, believed to be the Son of God. The celebration focuses on the Incarnation, or God becoming human. You don't need money to celebrate that.

Nothing is ever going back to what it once was. You will continue to fall. You only have your contentment now.
