If that is your goal couldn't you do it more efficiently without the middle man of some random person becoming rich?


Yes, there are other ways of raising revenue, direct taxation, indirect taxation, philanthropy and lotteries. They all have a part to play.

Gambling is a good thing?

Its not really a gamble since you know you're not going to win. Its a tax for idiots who complain about taxes. I'd rather save and invest in things where I have a chance of increasing my bet.

How do you know you are not going to win?
Even if you don't win a prize, you benefit from the revenue raised.

My brother won $1,000 on a $20 scratch-off. Of course, he's probably behind the game considering all the cards he buys LOL.

We drove to the Lottery Commission office in the State Capitol. He had to fill out a bunch of paperwork and they gave him a check for $1,000 minus his estimated Federal and State taxes.

Thousands of Spaniards including humble restaurant workers and care home residents celebrated wins in the world's biggest lottery draw on Monday, scooping up shares in over 2.2 billion euros (US$2.7 billion) in prizes doled out across the country.

El Gordo, or "the Fat One", is the top award millions vie for every year in the traditional Christmas lottery, which had Spaniards on tenterhooks for four hours as the ceremonial draw took longer than usual to throw up the big prizes.
