As with any other game of chance, the explosion of Indian-run casinos, pull-tabs, lotteries...I just don't get it. If I'm going to plunk down some of my $$$ for something I either want to leave feeling full or looking fabulous, not feeling duped and broke!!!

????? Where do college students get this kind of money? When I was in school I lived on ramen noodles, popcorn, mac and cheese and canned tuna, and still just mangaged to pay tuition, fees, rent and books. Times have changed.


I think it's a broader societal problem,. I wonder if these kids' parents have any idea their kids are spending college money on this.
