Lotteries are just the only way to get the lower income tax brackets to pay taxes. After the dims whine about how each tax cut should help "everyone but the wealthy" we have reached the point where only the wealthy pay taxes. I think lotteries are immoral personally, but it seems to be the only way to get some of the rest of the folks to pay anything.

It would be better to put the lower brackets back on the tax, so they paid at least a small amount. Then they would be a little less eager to support every spending bill that comes down the pike.

The amount of tax could be really small. But people who don't pay part of the freight shouldn't be allowed to vote.
