     I think the Local (Lansing) government is getting to be just like Fidel Castro. They want to control our lives at every aspect.It's none of the Human Service Dept. business if I hit the Lottery for $1000.00 or more.The law was already on the books for $5000.00 reporting for tax purposes.If I am not getting anything from the State of Michigan, why is it their business to know that I hit the lottery or at the Casino for $1000.00.This is going too far.They have nothing else to do except sit up and think of some dumb Law to put on the Books.To be able to say he/she got this passed in the House their very own Bill.Stop being dictators already.Take some of the Dumb laws off the Book.

    We ARE THE LAND OF THE FREE (SUPPOSELY), WHAT'S FREE THE GOVERNMENT TELLS US EVERYTHING TO DO NOW.STOP ALREADY

    It's funny how lottery winners can still get welfare money :)) While others have to Sell Books only to make ends meet. Life is mysteriously unbalanced while having so many good things to offer at the same time.
