[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you feel about Gov. youngkin wanting to ban the VA lottery and introduce more gambling limits.[/quote] The lottery is a tax on the mathematically illiterate. If they want to keep throwing their money away, they should be allowed to.[/quote] It's a tax on the poor. [/quote] Exactly. [b]Mathematically literate[/b] people who aren't poor love the lottery because to someone with a decent income $2 a week for a Powerball ticket is for all practical purposes so close to $0 as to be interchangeable while buying the ticket increases your odd of winning a life-changing amount of money from 0% to >0%. So effectively you're paying $0 for a nonzero chance of winning. [/quote] Oh the irony.... :D :D :D :D :D [/quote]
