From the supplier: State lotteries have been rejected by academicians for being a poor revenue source with substantial administrative costs. On the other hand, policymakers and the general public have embraced lottery operations, as its state presence increased from 17 states in 1985 to 33 in 1992. The introduction of lotto in 1981-1985 generated increased net revenues from state lotteries. Minimal correlation between lottery revenues and other revenue sources supercedes lottery funding risk.
