The lottery is a tax on stupid people.

No one forces you to buy a lotto ticket, so the stupid people are those who keep quite about forced taxes.

Tell that to the people who win significant money. People aren’t stupid; they know it’s just another form of gambling with high odds against winning.

Guy in front of me (at gas station checkout) bought 3 tickets. What is that? $3 each?
My finite math teacher at Cal State discussed the lottery in our probabilities and statistics section. Even at 15 million to one (Cali lottery), it's impossible to win, statistically. But he plays it every week.
Powerball is, what? 1 chance in 300 million. Fagedaboudit!
