FYI, the lottery is a regressive tax disproportionately paid by the people who can least afford it, and little of the proceeds actually go to community funding.

We should fund community services by taxing the rich, not by conning working people into thinking they'll become rich.

@rbreich You're absolutely right. Lotteries prey on those who can least afford it. Taxing the wealthy for better community services is a much better solution.
