Whites spend on average $30.76 playing the lottery... blacks $88.98... Hispanics $64.83... and others (Asians) $72.73... Do not be fooled! Slot machines will take more money from non-whites on average. None of the dollars will go to pay for social services for the poor. Follow the money: who stands to benefit from slot machines? Certainly not the average Texan.
