Powerball From 1A jackpot could hurt those who are recovering from gambling addictions from frequent trips to casinos and other forms of gaming. He said the state was being irresponsible for promoting the lottery game.

"It's the only addiction the state promotes, and Powerball is a good example," Crowder said. "You'll never see a state -supported billboard encouraging people to drink." Although Iowa City resident Arisen Beck, 21, recieved a Powerball ticket for Christmas, she said she agrees that the lottery could contribute to a gambling addiction. "They just keep spending their money when there's no chance of winning," Beck said. Crowder said anyone with a gambling addiction can contact the Iowa Department of Public Health's hotline at 800-BETS-OFF or the Eastern Iowa Center 1 for Problem Gambling in Cedar Rapids at 319-377-0480.
