I see a lot of old folks scratching tickets in the 7-11 peaking lot. Something about it makes me... Uneasy? Disappointed?

It’s another way for the Ruling Class to steal your money.

It’s a tax on people bad at math. I don’t have a problem with it.

I used to work at a convenience store and we sold lottery tickets. The tickets were put through a machine which would tell you if it was a winner or not - so, if this ticket was put through the machine - it clearly was a misprint. I find it ironic that the states implemented the lotteries to “help the schools,” and yet the schools are still constantly begging for money. The states also encourage addiction to gambling, then offer their services to help those who are addicted.
