The irony of using lottery money for education is that if public education succeeded in teaching reading and math comprehension, no one would ever buy another lottery ticket. The odds are so much against you that you really are just throwing money down the drain.

The existence of state lotteries tends to prove that schools have failed utterly. And that the state government thinks it's fine to promote get-rich-quick schemes to the citizens. They prosecute private confidence schemes so they get more money in public con jobs.

Another of the biggest get rich quick schemes being pulled over on Americans is Socialist's Security - but that's another topic of discussion and aggravation.
