He probably wants to replace it with PE-backed private gambling on your phone.

Follow the money, duh.

The lottery basically preys on the poor and uneducated. I think it should be banned.

The lottery is a tax on the mathematically illiterate. If they want to keep throwing their money away, they should be allowed to.


It's a tax on the poor.


Exactly. Mathematically literate 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.


Oh the irony....


I'm sorry that your finances are in such poor shape that $2 is something you need to worry about or event think about at all. I do hope things get better for you.
