Lotteries. They're just tax for poor people.
Lotteries fund government programs and services.
They're more a tax on greedy stupid people.
The people who do lottery tickets are poor people who need the money. The government funded programs should be coming from the rich people.
yeah it's called taxes lol
rich people dont get taxed for shit, that's the whole problem
I think most people buying a lottery ticket know that it's a loss on average. I think people buy it for the experience and the dreams that it represents. From that perspective, I don't think that it's a scam for most people but rather just buying a slice of fantasy
You quite literally described the scam part though, selling false hope
Well no, because thousands of people have won it all over the world. Yes, it might be 14 million to one, but for a couple of quid I don't care.
