Good Stewards

Living in NC and near the racing capital, NASCAR is starting to grow on me.  (Jem, don’t get your hopes up.  It ain’t growin’ THAT much.)  I’m all about the race sponsorships and keeping the sport going.  It is a great benefit to out local economy.  However, I find something highly inappropriate with the North Carolina Education Lottery sponsoring a race!  Yes…It was the 2009 NC Education Lottery 200.  Since the premise of an education lottery is to fund education, shouldn’t the lottery funds be spent on EDUCATION and NOT a NASCAR truck race?!?!? Education is being cut in every possible way and the lottery to fund it is being spent on a race sponsorship…not a car sponsorship…not an advertising banner…the WHOLE truck race!  Unreal.
