To: Cincinatus' Wife

Exactly. No one envies his life as-is, but he is able to calculate with cunning...something the poorest, most miserable seeming people the world over are able to do. This makes them responsible before God, whether or not society deems them “incompetent”.

Jesus asked the paralytic “Do you want to get well?” for a reason. Building your life around sickness and helplessness (even when real) can leave you avoidant of a cure. To be cured means back to work, paying taxes, life problems!

He is too incompetent to spend the Lotto winnings yet he is competent enough to spend on Lotto tickets?

Spending money on Lotto tickets takes a high degree of incompetency to start with so why quibble on how he spends the winnings?

So since only fools play the Lotto then all winnings should be administered through a state run trust.

Thought: Let the Lotto accept EBT and other gimme dat cards. Then have all Lotto tickets cashed at casinos only. This would put a high % of welfare payments right back into taxpayer’s pockets via the taxation of gambling and job creation. Oh heck allow welfare to be spent on any high tax item, cigs, booze, mj... It ends up there anyway so cut out the middleman.
