I have a PhD in theoretical physics. I understand the statistics behind Powerball at a deep and profound level — I could teach anyone why it is a bad idea to buy a ticket.
I buy Powerball tickets.
I am a human being.

You are correct, I won’t win but if I did I would not have to pay state taxes on my fortune because only two states let you keep it all – California and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. To which I ask the obvious question.. How did those tomato cans in Harrisburg miss that one?
no state income tax in tejas. and no beans in the chili.
That makes three. Then my local news source is incorrect. Dang that liberal media. I hope you win.
