Seven years ago, America was promised hope and change. The change never came, but at least there is still hope, and it comes in the form of a voluntary tax known as the Powerball lottery. The only problem: it happens to be everyone else's hope too, and to even get a chance to buy a ticket, one has to wait in lines such as this one on the California-Nevada border.
